Probably best by saying to GP that you are having a few problems coping and show him/her scars. They will understand, you will not be the first they have seen.
Try writing it all down first so when you walk in your mind doesn't go blank. I've always found that helpful. Also if you get too nervous when you are in there you could hand over the piece of paper to the dr so he can read. I've done this a number of times and it's so worth it.
good luck hun x
Hope all goes well with your appointment *hug*

I haven't done self harm for a few months. Its possible to get better. If your not suicidal make that very clear to the doctor so they don't start to panic.
All the best and let us know how it goes *hug*
what do you think the most important things to get across are ?
