1a. Does your family know about your SI
everyone except my grandmother
1b. If yes, how did they find out
parents found out when I was in the hospital ER for what we found out to be an ulcer, and the tech was putting in an IV; they told the rest of the family when I was in the mental hosp a week later for an overdose (I gave them permission to tell)
2. Do you let your family know when you SI Why or why not
No, my mom would flip out and get suicidal herself
3. Does your family treat you like your are about to break
definitely, more so right after I get out of the hospital
4. How do you feel about your family knowing about your SI
I kinda wish they didn't know, but it makes things easier cuz I don't have to hide the scars except around my cousins (they're still young, and impressionable)
5. How do you handle the everyday stresses that come with family outings, dinners, etc
I don't. When it starts to get overwhelming I find one excuse after another to get out of the situation and go home so that I can come on here, and try not to do anything
