When you went in for stitches, why didn't they have you committed?
If you are a danger to yourself or others, you should be in a mental hospital, so they can watch you and stop you.

Nothing gets resolved anymore. You can't trust yourself not to physically
maime yourself, and no one takes control, just leaving you to self-destruct. That makes no sense. How pathetic.

I went in last week due to a similar issue and they asked me "Do you think you will hurt yourself?" and I said, "I'm not sure" and they let me go home. NICE! I think breakups are a totally hard thing to navigate and probably a very good reason many go to the ER and say, "Look, I can't stop thinking about hurting myself, and I need help." They can give you three meals a day that are nutritious and encourage you if nothing else - it's like getting a boost to help you make it. If you go in tonight you could have a bit of care and be home by Monday if that is what you are worried about. I know it takes guts to admit we are weak but they are so used to it at the ER departments!

I may be hurting myself, but i would never hurt someone else. And when i went to hospital , i just lied to them saying that i got cut by mistake. it was my first cut on right hand. I could never tell them i self harm, otherwise i would have to face soo much questions

Faraaz, I do get that. And cutting is something you have that helps manage the intsensity of your pain. But answering questions could help you get coping skills or even a temporary medication that wouldn't carry as much stigma. Usually people who engage in self-harm have exquisitely sensitive genetic susceptibility to stress. Have you heard of Dialectical Behavioral Therapy? It was created EXACTLY for those of us with this sort of difficulty regulating emotions that are acutely distressing. They expect everyone is cutting - you have to be engaged in some sort of self-harm to even get in to some DBT groups. The good news is that this sort of thing improves rapidly with DBT - even if you do not want to do the drama of the ER, I promise if you Googled "DBT Groups" and your location you could find more. The issue is distress tolerance and your response to what someone else might just shrug off or cry and then get over it is because of how you were raised and abuse and your genetic sensitive wiring that makes emotional regulation when experiencing pain very difficult. I hope you will consider maybe finding something like that or even just anonymously calling a Clinic and telling them you cut and want to know what help they offer in your community. If you were diagnosed with the inability to regulate insulin, you would be given medication and taught how to manage your life. This is similar - emotion regulation is a skill you need to learn for life because you know now the pain gets too much to handle - you need help managing it!

Sorry you're going through so much. I'd reconsider getting help and getting committed.

I know they ask many questions, but they are to help you, not to blame you. You will feel better than now if you get help. I understand the process may be uncomfortable, but you will get better with treatment and a professional that ca provide you with the help you need.

Hugs.

Ok , i will try to go for dialectical therapy. Thank you for your advice.
