Ugghh hate when its like this. Every inch of me fights whats inside while every inch of me longs for the blade. I don't like it when its coz im numb either. I'd rather cut when I feel entirely. When im numb i go too deep. Nothing matters in the foggy place. Help someone? Need a distraction. Its 3 steps between me and that knife.

" Hey thanks for the advice. I wrote some shit out and i feel a lil better. I think I can stave this thing off at least till morning. Once daylight swings by everything is safe. Night time just makes everything so much worse. "

" Yah I understand that ... nighttime is the worst for me for cutting and ED. I pretty much just automatically take a Xanax every night for the last few months just to cope, and that does help a little (at least I can sleep then).

I'm kind of hoping other meds will help more with that. Sorry if that's not much help right now in the moment, but I'm with you in spirit :) "
