I posted this in other places but I can't get the guts to give a letter to my parents telling them I've been suicidal in the past. I don't know if I should tell my brother first or something. I tried scaring myself into doing ut but it didn't work like it usually does. I really just need someone to tell me to get myself together and just do it.

Elmo: @Anonymousplease, sometimes it takes time to tell someone something, but if it's the point where you want to tell them badly but struggle to do it, first, take a breath, try to think of something that makes you happy or hold your favorite thing in your room and try not to think of many things at once. Second, bring your family in a family meeting or get your parents and explain to them while staying confident. Make sure while doing step three, you follow step two. Fourth, try to do your best when talking to them and try to stay calm. You might have to speak throughly if they don't get it. If they ask any personal questions that have to do with it, it's your option to share or not. Please let me know if this helps or not. Thank you.

Elmo: Here is how you do it. First, confront them if they do something wrong, and make sure you tell them that you won't be friends with them anymore. This is the answer,but that isn't all. Second, after no longer being friends, make no contact with them. If they beg to be nicer if you be their friend again, decline. You never know if their lying and never trust them for problems like that. If they tell everyone something about you that is a lie, tell everyone their secret or make up your own lie, or just report it. I hope this will help you. Thank you for your time with your question.

Is hitting valid self harm and is it still valid if you don't want to die?

I think it depends on why you are hitting yourself. I used to scratch myself but it wasn't to purposely cause harm

I have violent thoughts, but would never harm anyone. I used to be suicidal but not anymore. And I feel stressed a bit.

always try to remember that bad thoughts don't make you a bad person.

Ok, so I could really use some advice on this.
I have seven outdoor cats and we live a little under an hour away from the closest vet. Because we have so many cats, vet trips are very expensive, and they are also outdoor cats we have to pick carefully when to take them to the vet. This means that times most people would take their pets to the vet we didn't. I'm in a difficult situation right now because I have a cat who was overweight and then suddenly lost a ton of weight. She also hasn't been eating as much and acts like she constantly has to go to the bathroom, but I don't think that she actually does every time. I'm indecisive because all the times we've taken cats to the vet before it was something obvious and it was easy to tell that they were hurting. The big question is do I take her to the vet and risk not being able to do anything or finding out that I didn't need to take her? Is it worth it to take her, or would she be happier not going?

Elmo: Sorry but this one is for Mark.||| Ok. I've experienced this with my dog, Boss before. He did this constantly. your cat might be doing this because it's getting old. You should ceck with your vet and see if it is an emergency. If it is a waste of money, then I highly apologize. Please let us know if you liked the advice or not. Thank you for your time.

Elmo: Mark.//// Ok, this is what you should do, go to someones house and explan what is happening. If you don't want to, then this is Elmo's advice. Elmo: Take a break from them. Please don't kill yourself because there are people in the world that love you. Even as a friend like me.If they do it again, If you have step parents, you have a right to live with the other biological parent. Otherwise, call someone that you know and talk with them. Mark has these problems too.

i'd personally drown them out with really loud music, but that could stress you out, idk how your mind deals with loud stuff like that.... or I'd do something that needs a lot of focus, like art or piano.

Elmo: Listen, the best thing to do is to not be friends with them anymore. You can always make more friends someday in your life like me :D It might be hard but you have to let them go. If thye talk to you, ignore them back. If this doesn't help, please let me know in the comments. Thank you.
