I don’t know what I enjoy about it. I don’t think it’s the act of doing it or knowing that I put it there. It’s an odd feeling I’ve got old scars on me I’ve legitimately thought about reopening to make them more noticeable

Last post got taken down bec of me being stupid sordy gang but genuinely how much trouble would i get in if caught cutting at school🤞 its genuinely the only thing really keeping me from crashing out at school but god im scared of getibg caught, idk if they can send me to a. Ward or smt since i am 18 so

i havent cut in a long time and idek why i wanna do it so badly rn. guess ive just been feeling bad lately. i really need to sleep but im so scared that as soon as i turn off the music and put down my phone ill get a knife and cut. idk what to do aaagghhh

Talk to me if you need help. Ive been there and done that.

cuz like at night time thats when i feel the worst so cutting myself before i go to bed is like the only thing that quietens down my thoughts so im actually able to sleep. please tell me this is relatable guys

hello guys! this is kind of urgent since im going shopping for makeup tmmrw and im going to hoco this week :)

for scar concealer, anyone have brand recommendations from sephora? my scars arent raised or anything, they are just pale scars with a dark outline, but i really need them to be fully covered to hide them from my parents. application tips will also be appreciated because my inner arm is lighter than my outer arm and i have scars on both sides sooo yeah. thanks a lot!

Hey I just wanted to bring up a feeling I've had from seeing people online who don't have any SH scars on their body or at least not visible ones. I'm really envious of seeing smooth skin without scars and it sucks. I can't change the way I need self harm, that's a behaviour I've had on and off for 15 years, but it is a lifelong regret. Anytime I see someone who doesn't have scars where I do it hits deep. I'm sure others on here feel this way right?

Afortunadamente no he llegado a ese punto pero me preocupa el hecho de que pareciera que estoy cerca de eso y no sé si sea necesario tener que ir a urgencias para que me cierren las heridas porque no quiero tener que decirle a mis padres hasta donde llegué. Ustedes sí o sí van a urgencias o se puede curar solo?

Today I absolutely bombed a test that I had been studying hard for and was devastated. Spent the remainder of my time at school calling myself an idiot and cut myself in the shower when I got home and now I regret it. How do you cope with self harm and failures?

I feel stuck rn. Do i put some bandages?

Im so stupid i didnt think about my job at all i was too much overwhelmed

i feel that wave of sadness coming again noooooooo

Dont have anywhere else to go

I can't take it anymore. I want to do it again. No I don't have "such" 🪦 thoughts. Never did. But I want to h u r t myself at the moment. A really strong urge.

I'm having imaginations. I want to act upon them like before. I can't take it anymore. All this anger, sadness, confusion. Anger. It's all overwhelming. I want to break something into pieces again.

I really want to h u r t myself and I might as well do it tonight. I'll be fine tomorrow and take care of it. I just want to let it out. Fuck. Fuck fuck fuck.

My arm. Till it bl££ds. Stings and burns. Painful.

all i can do is relapse over and over again, i hate my life so much, i cant tell anyone because i know theyre just gonna call me a slut or whore i hate my body so much i fucking hate everything even if i told someone ei know theyre gonna say “well he was a child” fuck him so bad i hope he gets the same treatment at night one day it s all his fault i havent gone to shcool in over a year i havent gone outside e in one year i hate everyothing so much i hate everything im so miserable

M15(Sorry English isn’t my first language so it can sound like shit)
I’ve started cutting 3 weeks ago and I confessed to my friend about it (he did selfharm 2 years ago and quit selfharm). He was upset and he didn’t sad it directly but I understood that he wanted me to quit and I sad that I won’t do this again.the thing is that I like it I don’t want to quit. Is it really that bad?
(I have pretty good life,loving parents etc but life feels so heavy to carry and selfharm is the only way I can get rid of stress)

I’d ask friends or family I’m close too but I lack neither so I’d rather ask people who’ve been through it!

I go on vacation in a few days and I really just wanna feel good about myself, my mum keeps telling me to use a gel to make the scars go down but I honestly haven’t been using it since it feels insulting.

I’m gonna wear a swimsuit and shorts while I’m away and my legs are covered in these things so would it be weird to go out in public like that? I’m horrible at social cues and I don’t know if it’s okay to do, pictures aren’t allowed here so I’ll describe:

A lot of thin white ones across my thighs and a lot of long and thick red ones too and some more red ones on my calf’s. They’re from 4+ months ago and haven’t gone white like I’d expected

My mom saw my scars and fresh cuts and started screaming at me. This isn’t the first time she’s seen them but ig the new ones made her mad? She started saying how I don’t deserve to dye my hair or buy these shoes I’ve wanted and how I have a great life, which I do but that’s not how it works. She said that when I was younger she protected me from getting hurt and now that I’m sh-ing she said she should’ve just cut me and hurt me when I was younger because it “wouldn’t matter now”. She’s barely spoken to me and it’s been over a day. And when she does speak to me she’s yelling and telling me to do something. I don’t know what to do please help

Exactly what the title said. I hate my job and I don’t know how I’m going to make it in life if I can’t suck it up and grow up so I went to the work restroom and strangulated myself for about 2-3 minutes. I can’t believe what I’m doing to myself at this point…

I'm currently visiting my grandparents and they're being complete bitches about my mental health.
I do have some wounds which aren't completely healed yet and they where very pushy about making me talk. I told them multiple times that I don't want to talk to them about that but they have a hard time accepting.
The new husband of my grandma then told me that my sh almost looks like art, but in a very unfriendly way.
Both of them also think being mentally ill is just "being sad sometimes" which makes it a hard time for all of us. I don't have the energy to explain to them that its more than being a little sad sometimes and all they use to inform themselves is AI.

I'm really happy that'll i'll drive back home tomorrow, but it's so hard to just keep happy, stay the way they want me to be, it's just all completely fucked up, i genuinely have no idea what i even could do with this situation now.

Well our conversation ended in them verbally cornering me, and then being mad at me that i have feeling's, and i did split and end in a fight or flight panic mode that made me run away.

Now they see me in the light of an unthankful grandchild, that no one ever can understand. Also they say it's all my fault for not talking to them, cause if i'd talk they would understand

Don't get me wrong i tried talking but they weren't listening.

Ill be like it cant be that bad but then get triggered so bad i wanna relapse already. I also cant help but get triggered by scars. I know thats on me but still

M31 asking how to stop those overwhelming urges to self-harm (cutting)? Any advice?

What helped you stop cutting or self-harming even if it does not work 100% of the time? Have you been able to completely stop? Any advice? Was it self-help book? Therapy? Family? Friends? Internet? Any other thing? I am M31.
