Hi I’m nobody….well…I’m new to this site.I’ve si a few times and at the time it felt like what i should do because i was sick of no one seeing me at all but then i hid myself even more because i felt bad about doing it.that’s been a few months.i got my first real boyfriend and everything was going really well.but now that it’s summer and i don’t see him as much I’ve started to get the feeling that I’m fading away again no one cares.i miss even a little attention from anyone.but now i don’t know what to do i don’t want to go back to si but i keep thinking about it.
what should i do?
hi. nice to meet you and welcome to the message board. 🙂
i just want you to know that you are never alone at all. we all have different issues but the same way of coping through SI…on that note, SI is pretty new to me too. i’ve only been doing it for a month…do you have someone at school you could talk to like a counselor who wouldn’t judge you…you don’t necesarrily have to tell him/her about your SI…just talk about anything you want, like stuff that’s bothering you…or maybe a therapist? idk…sorry, those are the only suggestions i have….maybe you could tell your bf about feeling like you want to spend more time with him?
i hope this helps.
stay safe hun.

hey there,well i don’t SI anymore..i did it for two years and is a year clean.don’t hide from your bf,the more you push him away and the more you stay away from people,is the more you’re tempted to hurt yourself,and you know you really don’t want to.i too don’t see my bf often,i’ve seen him twice for the year >.< but i hear from him everyday and it helps,a lot.i understand that sometimes it doesn’t but you’ve gotta push yourself to survive this….good luck 😉
Hi, im new to the site as well(started yesterday) and i know what you mean. I tried going out with a boy but we couldnt go out anymore because it was so akward, with him knowing i was hiding something and me SI-ing. There is always someone in your life that will care if you start to fade, maybe a friend, a therapist, councelor, or parent.
I hate the fact that after the first time you SI you always have the urge to after, i think thats what you were explaining, you can always email me if you need someone to speak to, whether during summer or school @ dragonfairy14@hotmail.com
sincerely,
hollie
I think you need to just decide that you’re worth more than all the hate. You need to know that one day you WILL feel better. I speak from experience in thinking that that’s just something people say, but it truly does get better. I promise you. Do you want to be happy? Do you want to have a fulfilling future with nothing but love in your life? If the answer’s yes, then please realize that you can’t stay down. Pull yourself up or get someone to help you up but don’t keep falling.
