    Hey jessica133 :wave:

    Welcome to TheSite. Do you want to tell us a bit more about what's been going on for you? What sort of advice were you looking for?

    If you haven't already seen it then you might like to check out our info and advice articles on self harm: http://www.thesite.org/mental-health/self-harm

    We also did an expert webchat about eating disorders recently that you might find useful to read: http://www.thesite.org/mental-health/eating-disorders/expert-chat-with-beat-eating-disorders-11544.html

    Finally, you also mentioned your sexuality - it sounds like you've got a lot going on at the moment so it's great that you've found TheSite as the community here is a great place to get support from others and talk in a safe and anonymous way.

    Let us know how you're getting on *hug*

    Hey Jess

    Its good that your reaching out of some support about this :)

    Have you spoken to anyone about this before? Samaritans are a good starting point, especially to talk about self harm.

    And if your under the age of 19, childline offer great services. There's a message board just like ours and there counsellors that are available 24 hours a day through call, 1-2-1 chat or email

    Of course there's also our boards where you can discuss your problems too

    Best of luck *hug*
