I have self injured for about two to three years now. I haven’t been able to stop. Nothing is helping at all. The closest people to me tried to help me and now it feels like they just want to get rid of me. They told me to ask them for help when I needed it. I have been trying to do so but they keep tunning me out. I want to SI so bad but at the same time I don’t want to disappoint them. I don’t know what to do and nothing and no one is helping me.
I can totally relate to you about going to your friends for help. They say that they’re there for you, but I always feel like I’m “over-using” them. I’m sure your friends really care about you, they just may not know how to handle the situation; maybe they’re scared. My best friend at the time, when I told her that I was injuring, she completely turned away from me, because she didn’t know what to do or say to me. We’re all here for you on the blog, and you never have to worry about being tuned out here 🙂 I (at least somewhat, depending on your situation) understand what you’re going through, and I can say that I want the best for you and for your recovery. Just remember your healthy coping techniques, and take one day at a time <3
You can do it! As said above all fo us on the blog are here for you 🙂
