Triggering (SI) - I was lied to

Ok so Ive been dealing with a lot lately, got hospitalized got put on meds, got a second chance at life..., I told my parents about my SI a couple months ago around february and my mom didnt seem at all shocked. I thought it was strange but I let it go, they took it pretty good. Now before that I had gone off to school in september, and right now I was talking with my parents while on vacation and I find out that my brother had gone into my bathroom after I left looking for a nail cutter to cut his nails and he found my "cut kit" It was full of bandages, medical tape, steristrips, and worst of all my blades. He apparently found them full of dried blood and got really freaked out and told my parents. Crap so my parents found my blades full of blood, and some old bandages that I forgot to throw away full of blood. I never knew what happened to it, but now I know I always thought I threw it away and forgot I did it. Damn. I cant beleive they knew all along and never said anything to me.

Now he hasnt told anything about it to me and I didnt even know he knew about it and told them. I dont even know how I should react to that. Should I tell my brother what was going on with me? he apparently saw the scars on my wrists and also told my parents but I didnt even know he saw them, I normally have them covered up by a watch and a bracelet. So Im not quite sure how I should go about this.... Should I tell him, or not, or what?!?! My folks say that hes worried about me, but he didnt let on about it when Im near him.... ahhhh this is making my head swirl around like a washing machine.....



Into my heart an air that kills
From yon far country blows:
What are those blue remembered hills,
What spires, what farms are those?
That is the land of lost content,
I see it shining plain,
The happy highways where I went
And cannot come again.

I think;..that if you feel upto it, you should tell your brother. He worries about you. That doesn't mean you have to tell and no, he doesn't have a right to know either but I think it would be a good idea. I have a brother who is nearly 4 years younger than me and he knows that I've been self harming for quite a few years now. It's 10 I've been SH'ing for but he's know quite a while now. I ca't quite put into words why I think you should explain at least a little bit to him but I think you should, if not now - at some point in the future = when you are ready.
