Firstly, was the first time she has ever stolen? If so, you should say something to her how you feel about that. Now, if she does reckless things like that all the time, I suggest is to move away from her since she isnt good for your mental well-being.

If my best friend stole something, i would personally tell them hey thats not cool, like you have to pay for it or dont get it at all. I would let it slide but if she kept doing it i would personally tell my mom. But if yoh believe that you feel better with telling ur therapist then do that :)

I know this feeling, it's EATING at you inside, bc, if course, "it's wrong"... Right? Go in your room, confess it out loud. Just saying it, getting it off ur chest is a relief. Tell ur friend, hey, look, that behavior isn't who I am, n I don't n can't be associated with it, it's just not me. Nobody's perfect, but if u do it again, I can't be ur friend n I WILL say something. Point out that the clerk could be penalized for it too. Talk with your therapist, n then speak to mom. Explain how u handled it, she'll be more understanding ig u n said friend part ways. Good luck to u friend!

Do u feel comfortable talking with your mom about it? Therapists are there for a reason, they teach us different ways to cope and handle the symptoms. Look at it this way, your mom's ultimate goal is to prepare you to be a strong, self sufficient adult who is capable of taking care of themself. She knows that one day u will move out, college, career, family, etc, whatever your aspirations may be. So, by talking to your therapist and practicing those skills on your own, is actually helping your mom too! Remember to view it as you are facing the issue head on, and handling it yourself instead of feeling guilty for not telling mom first. It not only shows your therapist and your mom that you are more self aware, but it proves to YOURSELF that YOU are capable of overcoming this!! You got this!! ❤️

therapist first.!
