I'm scared if I tell someone I self harm, they'll think I want to commit suicide and send me to the hospital. Could this happen?

They will not send you to a hospital unless your injuries to yourself can severely harm you. But, they will be concerned and try to do things to help you. They might take you to a doctor or therapist to talk to someone about getting antidepressants. Whatever happens, it will be done out of concern and care for your happiness, life, and well-being. It will be done out of love. I think you should curb your fear of results, and tell someone about your self harming issues. It really does help!

It could happen - yes. It isn't very likely that it will though. It depends on how often you cut and the reasons. Although, if you are suicidal, you will most likely need to seek more help and go to a mental hospital of a therapist.

yes because they care about you but if you sit down and talk with them then they should understand

Yes, this is one outcome that can happen. However, most people will not do that. Most people will do their best to measure your safety and asses if that's what you need. Try to remember that most people who self-harm are not doing it with the intention to die. Though, if you're at a high risk they (a friend a medical professional) may advise you to go to the hospital. Most of the time they'll want you in good therapy getting the help you deserve to have. You got this, recovery is yours :)

It is a risk. There are people out there who care for you and want the best for you. Self harming isn't a good coping mechanism, so they'll be concerned.

Yes this can happen. Instead of coming right out to someone who is ignorant to what you're feeling, I suggest going to see a counselor.

It's a possibility, people aren't always understanding about things that they are unfamiliar with. The key thing is communication if you explain your feelings they are going to be more aware of how you feel. If you tell someone it is the first step to recovery so you are probably moving away from the idea of committing suicide and if you communicate your feelings, people are going to there to help you.

Not exactly, they will try to help you and maybe you'll see counselor who will also try to help you

A reaction like this would be only because the person is worried about you,however it is important to talk about this and try to come up with other solutions. Whoever you choose to talk to will want to try and help you and sometimes you need that other hand to support you and lift you up.

No, of course not. The only way that would happen if a professional is really concerned about your safety. Letting someone aware of you self harming will help you get the support you need, whether it is meeting with a professional at times or having the right people around to help prevent this.
