Self-Injury Support Group
Whether you or someone you know or love struggles with self-injury, this is the community to discuss your experience, find support, meet others going through the same, and get advice on how to stop. Working together, we can help find alternative coping skills to reduce the urge to self-harm.
It's been awhile since I've asked for help. I think I've been getting better, and I think I'm still alright. But I'm starting to miss cutting. I haven't used my blades, because just playing with them helps me calm down, so I haven't used them to cut. But I feel like if I cut, I won't feel anything. It's like, why not cut? It doesn't matter to me if I do or not. Any why would it matter to anyone else if I did or not? It's just a cut and blood, maybe a scar. I don't know. I'm asking for help because I'm confused and I'm sure that what I've said are only results of this confusion. And I want help to think with a clear head.
When you get the urge, try to at least think of something else, anything. Take a deep breath and busy yourself with doing something else, like drawing or writing down your feelings.
I hope this helps you and good luck. Hugs
