Do they let you have cell phones in rehab for self harm? - cedrici - 02-14-2012

I want to tell my parents about my self harm and I wanna go to a clinic possibly. I was just wondering if you can have cell phones, iPods, laptops, etc. I only take a pair of scissors and swipe it across my wrist. Most of the time they don't bleed. Sometimes they bleed a little bit though. Oh and I don't have Internet on my phone.

I would imagine not. But dont really know.
The reason i say that is because its rehab not a holiday.
If your going there to try resolve issues then electronic devices are not going to help you.
Soul searching, reflection and education is what you need. Not a iphone or ipod mate.
Dont concern yourself with even taking them.

Ya, you go there for help, not to get deeper into the world of electronics.
Like DAMINK said, don't even stress it.
