whatsoever. since i recently moved to claremore ok, i have new neighbors. of course. so, my new neighbors came over and they have a daughter thats the same age as me. me and her have become pretty good friends in these past couple of months. so she came over today to hang out then afterwords we were goin to her house to swim in her in-ground pool (lucky!). we were tlkin and somehow the subject of my bf came up. and i told her about how he just got out of the psychiatric hospital last friday. i told her he self injures. shes like, “oh. well do you?” and of course i have no clue as to wat i shud say. -i dont really like ppl knowin cuz they tell someone and that person tells someone and the chain goes on and on. and then everyone thinks i do it for attention all cuz i told that one person (ive went thru this b4). plus, this is like a new start for me. why ruin it by admitting ima freak?- so im like ” no…maybe…idk…” so she sits there just lookin at me like shes waitin for a real answer or somethin. finally i say “ya. i do…” and shes like, “does it look like i would do that to you?” and in my head im like heck no! shes a freakin blonde, tan, preppy, beautiful chic (no. i dont flow that way. bf remember?). she has a huge house, an in-gorund pool, a pool house, a hot tub, and tons of friends. so i say “umm…no not really.” and she says “well i do. i have been since like june.” and im like woah! in my head. so ya. now i have no hope whatsoever. if she, the wonderful person that she is, Self injures, then i have no right to hope. i feel so hopeless. ='(
u can do it girl! you can stop. anyone can. try to get through it goether!
u can stop. every person is different and just bc it seems like shes got the perfect life on the outside doesnt mean that everything in her life is all great. i mean maybe shes got tons of problems that are easily hidden by the material things in life. she could be a good friend for you. u two could try together to stop one and for all. use eachother as an anchor and as eachothers releases instead of si.
ya shes pretty cool and all…but she talks about it like its no big deal. shes like ya i SI too. and im like uhhh…ya ummm.. i guess i do… i just idk… i have a couple of friends who did (do) one that stopped and shes like i stopped its not really that hard i havent for two years. i love her but, she doesnt understand. at all apparently. cuz i cant do that. i cant give up my control on my life.i have WAY to many things goin on rite now…=( and my other one (my bf) still does and hes trying to get me to stop and im tryin to get him to stop and i have got him to for the most part…but it hurts his feelings wen hes not enuf to stop all this pain im going thru. and i just cant bear it! its horrible. i cant stop now…. i just cant.
i know how you feel, like it feels like you NEED it ALL the time. but we dont. i dont know how religious you are but personally i dont believe that God would make anyone NEED to si. there has to be other ways to relieve the stress. there has too. we may not see them at this moment right now but we will see them when the time comes. and you can stop. WE CAN STOP.
people keep saying that but ive tryed soooo many times and i just CANT…=(
