URGENT!

I was trimming my pubic hair with a pair of scissors and I got startled by a noise, accidentally cutting the outer lips (I think labia?) It hurt intensely, and I immediately realised what happened and dropped the scissors. I sunk down into the water hoping it would alleviate the stinging, but it did not. It hurt worse. So I stopped my bath and am now sitting here with a wad of tissue in my panties. It hurts to look, but I think I see a tiny bit of skin hanging where it wasn't before. I'm only 16. What do I do? I have a history of self-harm and have been sexually assaulted before, so what if my mother sees it and thinks it was purposeful? I'm scared, HELP!

Your blood will eventually clot and your bleeding will stop, also notify your doctor about what happened. Your doctor has heard everything so don't be uncomfortable telling them!
