Like 5 years ago I broke my hand and I knew it was broke, my friend who I had know for pretty much my entire life asked me if I was alright and I said yeah, and I carried on with the game, I know it dosent really count but yeah lol.

Well the worst is that I grew up in a very tightly knit extended family ,the house was always over crowded.I worked hard and got my self into a private school in which my mum payed £9000 a year for me just to study there, although I thought I was doing well physically and mentally I hated it there I was a loner.Everything got worse and I became depressed.It took along time for my mum to find out I wasn't enjoying myself at school.She always told me to make the money worth it in the end.However I have cut scars all over my left arm from how depressed I was.So every time I am around my family I either cover up my left arm with long sleeves or keep an eye if they're looking.Luckily Im 20 and even 4 years after Im trying to fix my life
I kept the fact I was being abused a secret from my two best friends :sadnod:

Ive never kept that a secret from him,wouldn't be able to
That I was rather stupidly watching porn obsessively which made me think that she would inevitably cheat on me and that was why our reship went down the toilet
I knew what they did last summer.
I kept it quiet that someone at my work had Chlamydia

Now now, my discretion is legendary. I wouldn't have this reputation if I went telling it on a public forum would I?

I never intended to get into a relationship with her so it wasn't particularly hard.

That I didn't have sex on the sofa and that it must have been a spilled yoghurt stain

Tbh I've wanted to kill my brother too 👍
One thing in particular that has been mentioned on this thread, but I think mainly it was depression. It was easier to talk about my anxiety than that and the self harming. If your friend is worried it might be worth saying you have issues with your health, but you don't have to give exact details about it :smile:
