A month and a half ago i self injured.
my si has became an addiction. i rely on it to make me feel better.. when something is wrong i turn to that before i try anything else. i love doing it but i hate doing it. it is a love hate relationship. i am currently in intensive out patient therapy and will soon end up in a phyce ward if i continue to do it. i need help to stop this. i am new to this website so if i can get some feedback i would like it very much!!!
thank you for reading!!
Ya know, going to a psych ward isn’t the end of the world if that’s where you need to be to get help. I went for 9 days last month and I gained some new insight into my own problem with SI. Of course, there’s always the negatives associated with going into a psych ward that you might get from others who don’t understand. but if what you are doing isn’t working there are people there who can help you and keep you safe until you can contract to be safe. It’s hard, I know… every day is a new challenge on it’s own. I suggest you find something that has worked before and keep doing that one thing that kept you from Si before. Hang in there! You’re going to make it through.
I’m proud of you, first for coming to the best place there is for help. And secondly for admitting to us that you have a problem. That’s the first step in everything, and that’s what gets us the recovery we need to get. You need to realize that SI is an addiction, and that you need to break from the vicious cycle…I think you do realize that, because you know where this addiction will take you if you don’t stop it now. But we are all here for you, you are strong, and you can do this. You’re going to get through it. You already have a month and a half down, and now just take each day in small steps. It’s not going to be easy…just keep posting though.
