Yes, do tell her. She will be more hurt if she finds out by default. Sit down with her, quietly and tell her whats going on for you. Hopefully she wont get too upset by this news (although its always going to be distressing to a parent to hear that their child is cutting themselves) and she will help you find someone to talk to about everything thats making you feel the need to cut. I am 17, I have been in this boat about 4 years ago- now. It sucks. My mum found out by fault and I really do wish that I had told her. She would have been much more calm by it and almost reassured that I wanted to get some help for it. You are hurting her, and yourself, more if you don't speak up. Having someone to talk to helps.
