Does every teacher act the same way when it comes to self-harm?
hey,
Would every teacher tend to act the same when it comes to self-harm (SHV)? Or does their behavior also depend on their own emotions and how they cope?
Last year, I experienced this being reported to the school administration because the teacher was too worried about me (justifiably so). An ambulance was called, and I was taken to a psychiatric hospital. Still, I felt a bit betrayed because she broke her promise. But now I can understand her reasoning.
I've developed a pretty good relationship with another teacher, and she's asked me about this a few times (why I only wear long sleeves/long pants; how I really deal with stress (she didn't believe my answer), and more accurate stuff). I'm just really worried that it'll end like last time and our bond will be broken.
Can one generalize the behavior or is it really individual to the person you are dealing with?
PS: I'm (still) 17, if that matters.
Thanks for reading 🫶🏻

Oh, really?
Krass. That you’re going to be taken into a psychiatry… Then you have to do it a lot.
I don’t think every teacher is doing the same. Every teacher does as he/she thinks it is right.
But teachers only have to be because you have a conversation based on trust that keeps for yourself. As soon as it is in violation of others and danger for yourself, it does not have to keep it for itself.
Be careful.
First thanks for your answer! I don’t know if I can really trust her. (She also knows my mother well..) And yes, that was really the case at that time, only it had something else to do with a suicide attempt in addition.
Oh, okay. Well, if she knew your mother well, maybe I’d wait a little more. Wait the time and see how it develops.
I personally wouldn’t say it, but I don’t know your teacher either. But in principle, most teachers call someone if you tell them. Because of course the event should not be repeated.
No, teachers are at the end of the day also only people and all people behave differently. However, it also depends on whether there are regulations on how to deal with this topic at your school. Depending on how endangered a student is, a step can unfortunately also be necessary.
If you agree with everything, I’m just a few weeks at school anyway and since she promised to keep the contact after that, I don’t want to endanger this promise. Hope you know what I mean.
No not all teachers are the same. But you shouldn’t bother your teachers with it, you should visit a therapist.
Thank you for your great empathy 🙄
You wrote honesty wrong
No, it’s a harassment. This does not require quotation marks.
Do not change the fact that it is an additional burden for the teaching staff.
I think a lot.
Think about what all belongs to the teacher’s profession and that your problems are another professional burden. Psychological care is absolutely not part of the teaching profession
Is it “injuries” when I’m offered to talk to her about everything? You have no idea what I’m going through and how grateful I’m for this opportunity, there’s no one at home. Just because you don’t have such experiences, you don’t have to generalize your strange way of thinking. Think
No, they don’t all act the same. And I think your teacher did well because it can really end bad, but maybe she didn’t even know how to deal with it.
Yes, we had talked about it many times, and she didn’t know how to handle it and was afraid. But in the end, it was also correct. just don’t know how the other would get it.
No, but only a few adhere to God’s instructions that would really help.
Can I ask you exactly what you mean? I would be interested in:)
