    • About Me

      I'm just trying to put myself back together piece by piece. I've been through things I wouldn't wish on anyone, and I know people out there have similar stories. Sometimes I feel better, sometimes I feel worse. Sometimes I feel nothing at all, sometimes I feel everything at once. I suppose I'm normal, but I'm unique. I'm hurting, I'm happy, I'm me. Being on DS makes me feel less alone.

      From Coexzist03 November 5

      I have to say the advice you gave me had to have been one of the most helpfull things I have gotten on hear. About the if you go 2 years and slip than next time you should go two and a half. That was realy helpfull and puts a positive twist in my mind. Thank you :)

      Treatments

      Psychotherapy Somewhat Helpful
      helpful for learing a few new coping mechanisms, not for much else.
      Red Marker Not Working
      I traced all of the creases on my hand... and in the end I decided that it just looked kinda freaky and almost triggering seeing all that red there but not feeling any of the pain from it... ::sigh::
      Rubber Bands Working / Worked
      seems to work rather well out of the coping mechanisms I've tried, but I will say that you have to be careful about if people see you doing it. I think they find it bothersome...
      Tattoos Too Soon to Tell
      I have one, and getting it was a rush, it's rather pretty and I love it. I'm planning another 2 eventually one really large up the side of my torso and one small one on my hip. They say though that you should wait 2 years before tattooing over scar tissue, so that's what I'm working for. I want one over the place where I can see my scars.
    • Close Rape

      It's been a while since it happened, but I still haven't been able to really talk about it. I think that my problem is that I think I can forgive him what he did, but I can't seem to forgive myself. I know that I should know that it wasn't my fault, but I don't really think that I feel like that... I know it but I at the same time I don't, if that makes any sense at all.

      Treatments

      Rape Counseling Considering
      Talking Somewhat Helpful
      I've only been able to open up about the details to 2 people... neither of them know the whole story. I felt a little better after, but I wish I could just get it all out. I want to be able to let it go.
