i cant tell this to anyone, but i need to get it off my chest. please just listen to me.i s.i everyday. nobody knows. and i cannot tell anyone. it feels good and its what i want, but its not what everyone else wants. i dont know if i should stay with it, or stop for someone who i dont even know. i really dont know what to do, i just needed to tell someone – and that someone, i guess, is you. thank you for listening.
I used to self mutaliate too and i never felt better until i had told someone. because then that person was always there for me to try and stop me. sometimes he wouldn’t make the situation any better then it was but it feels good to have that release and let someone know.
if your not comfortable with telling anyone you know, maybe calling a helpline could help you. because then you could have a one on one coversation with a real person who won’t judge you or tell you to do anything, just let you talk. I’m not trying to tell you what to do either but once you stop and have the feeling of being in control and knowing your doing the right thing it feel so much better.
I agree with Jaybird. Talk on here if you need to or call a helpline cause talking to someone does help. I know it’s hard to, cause it is for me too, but it does help. Do you have a really close friend or family member you could talk to about it? Even if it’s just one, its better than no one. And as hard as it was to tell someone the first time, it was worth it and I’m glad i did. It has helped me a lot to not do it as much and find other ways to deal with things. If not, just know you can always talk on here. I’m new to this site, so idk if you can talk to people or just on here, but whatever you can do will help.
You’re not alone. I can completely relate. I’ve never told anyone either, and nobody knows I am doing it now. It’s really hard, but getting support on this site is a step forward. Best of luck.
