I Am Worried

I'm terrified for my future! I'm graduating high school and this will be the first summer i have not had a sport to occupy all of my time. I will be working but that's like every other day. When I'm alone and free, i contemplate my life worth, I think of suicide. I used to cut and I've been getting the urges lately. (Not for attention, only two people ever knew) I decided I should tell my counselor about my worries and my past (I've never told her) but I don't know how to do it, I don't know if I'm strong enough! How should I do it, I'm afraid my life could end this summer or I could relapse and I don't want to, but the urges will take over. I don't know what to do

Hey buddy it will be okay. What you are feeling is normal. You are reaching the next milestone of your life. Congratulations you have made it this far. Do you have any hobbies? You can volunteer? You said you like playing sports can you volunteer in a youth league or camp? Working is great!! Keep that mind occupied with things. Also please talk to your counselor. She or he is their to help you. If you dont speak up they cant. I promise you they here everything.

@Imani283: thank you but suicide is not normal, there's a long backstory to show I'm far from normal
