[QUOTE="Honeyend, post: 2176619, member: 430576"] If you can not get your medical teams to exchange information perhaps going to a support organisation that specialises in self harm may be a helpful. A good support group will help you realise your triggers and give you displacement activities. If you join a forum make sure its moderated and is a charity or professionally run. There are a few now. [URL]https://www.helpguide.org/articles/anxiety/cutting-and-self-harm.htm[/URL] There are adults who self harm who lead 'normal' lives, perhaps only close family know. I think you have mad a huge step admitting you self harm and want to do something about it. I think the idea of a pump is a good one to try. I find it hard to understand how the mental health team do not wish to become involved, there are so many people who have mental health issues who are also diabetic, the only reason I can think of is they want to keep your mental health history 'secret'.In the old days mental health notes used to be kept seperate from general notes and even now the RMN's tell RN's as little as possible.
