If you ever find yourself in the situation where someone says…

if you don’t agree with me I’ll [insert self-harm method]

if you don’t buy me this I’ll [insert self-harm method]

If you do [insert] I’ll [insert self-harm]

If you leave me I’ll [insert self-harm]

Or any variation of the above (or other form of guilt tripping) that ends with them self-harming, committing suicide or doing something otherwise harmful or dangerous to themselves and potentially others…

Realize that you are in an emotionally abusive situation and need to leave fast. Don’t engage, or give in. Leave. If you give into their behavior, you’ll only encourage it. If anyone threatens to self-harm themselves or commit suicide (even going as far as to show you their scars / cuts / bruises / burns / MO / etc.) they are NOT the kind of person you need to be around. 

They are manipulative and emotionally abusive. 

Don’t get caught in a cycle of abuse because you care for this person, or even feel sympathy / empathy for someone in their situation. This isn’t to say to completely ignore them or not take what they are saying seriously, however, this is saying to detach yourself from that person and report them to the police / guardian/parent. For their safety, you need to report them to the police / website / parents / etc. in order to make sure that they get help and therapy.

Yes, they will get mad at you and threaten more. But it is important to stand your ground and not give in to such behavior. Report it to the proper authorities so they can get help. Seriously. They need it and you don’t need to be around someone who is emotionally abusing you. 

If you are someone who does any of the above [guilt tripping, suicide / self-harm threatening, etc] you need to stop. That is no way to treat the people who disagree with you, don’t like you, don’t want to do xyz, etc. 

You need to get help and therapy and learn to not do this type of shit to people because it ain’t cute, and it ain’t funny.
