i am a self injurer but the reason i am posting this in here is because i si as a result of my depression. this is the first time ive si-ed since may. im not in need of stitches or anything and i know it happened because a lot is going on..i have to go for test to see if i have ovarian cancer and my father who i dont live with anymore is fighting with me..and i always have man trouble. im not on any meds at the moment and im not seeing myself just popping out of feeling so low. im not sure if i should wait it out and see if i feel better or go to a hospital and seek help. my mom told me its up to me, but im not sure what to do...and id really appreciate some input if possible

Sorry to hear you are feeling low. I'd say get into counseling as soon as possible. Then follow doctor's orders, including meds if he thinks you need them. In the meanwhile, there are so many here on DS to listen, help, and offer feedback. Take care, and I hope you feel better soon.

Your mum is right in some ways.... it is up to you. You are in charge of your own mind. If you feel you need help then it is up to you to ask for it. Your doc is one person you can turn to, if you trust them. Talking to people is a really good way to vent feelings, and is certainly less desctructive than self harming (sorry if that sounds uncaring, it isn't intended that way). If you want to talk to someone then feel free to message me. I'm happy for you to take out any bad feelings on my either on here or on MSN. Take care x

    I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
