Is there any websites where you can read novles about suicide,cutting,and depression?
Could you maybe check some books out at the library or read them there? I understand what you’re saying – my mom didn’t want me to read books about suicide because she was afraid they would “give me ideas”, but it was really important to me to know that I wasn’t the only one going through this. One book I would highly recommend is Veronika Decides to Die by Paulo Coelho. There are some adult themes, but it is a very inspirational book and it was something I could relate to. Another book that’s really important to me when I’m depressed is Man’s Search for Meaning by Viktor Frankl. A mentor gave it to me when I was in the hospital. There’s nothing about suicide or cutting, but it does relate to depression and the different ways people react to suffering.
