I self harm a lot, and today I fell while skateboarding and I think my left wrist is broken. I can’t move it and It’s got pulsating pain. I also have no grip strength. And it’s positioned on an angle that doesn’t look natural so it may be hyperextended too. But I can’t go to the doctor about it. I’m only 16 years old and I don’t have a car. So I would need to get my mom to drive me to the hospital to get a cast/realignment. But my parents are extremely Pentecostal Christian. Very old style. And they would literally kick me out of my house if they knew I was depressed. I’m in a very bad situation in my family and my dad is abusive in more ways than I care to admit. I just need some of y’all’s opinion, should I risk getting kicked out and get my scars and mental state revealed to my family, all to fix a broken wrist? Or should I just suffer with this fir a bit. I know first aid pretty well and I hope to become a doctor one day so I have a makeshift splint made. But I don’t know how effective it’s going to be. And I can’t show it to my family or they will question me. Oh and on top of all of that, I am quarantined for covid. I have had 2 close contact cases on Monday (it is now Sunday) and I have been rapidly decreasing in mental health since. I have been tested negative but I’m not allowed out of my room. I have cut so much in the last few days and now my wrist is broken. I don’t know what to do. And I’m so scared of getting permanent damage or kicked out of my house. If anyone can please help me It would make my day.
Sorry for any grammatical errors. I am using one hand and it’s late so I’m tired.
