so most of you might know me on here as undoubtedlybroken. i cancelled my account cause i thought i didnt need it anymore. but i was very wrong. I relapsed really bad and am struggling to get help/ i am getting back into that stage to where i am really isolating myself and am making upexcuses because i just dont wanna go anywhere. i got a new pdoc and went to the docs. got a new therapist but i saw her once hated her and am not gong back; i just wasnt comfortable at all. I guess i have really been stggling with thoughts about suicide lately and am terrifyed of telling anyone. I basically told my mom i was gong to a few weeks ago and they didnt take me seriously. I'm tired of everyone not taking me serously they think everything i do is a joke. but this is serious. And i guess i really need guidance or someone to talk to just cause i have been feeling so alone. How did you guys if you have, tried to reach out and get the help you need especially if your parents dont understand this stuff and are not supportive???
I'm really just afriad i might slip....

hello nice to see you back, although i dont know you now or who you were before but i commend you for sharing your story...i,myself,being a cutter for 31 years, knows what it feels like to relapse....lately, it's been an everyday thing for me...i have no substantial time under my belt, so i'm probably not the one to come to for advice...all i can say is try not to beat yourself up over relapsing...it's apart of who we are, at least it is for my sake...i'm a hypocrite when it comes to giving advice to those in need when i can't keep what i say true to my own heart and listen to my own advice...it's just me...this part scares me...i have learned a whole lot of "healthy distractions" to keep me from cutting...calling a friend, calling a hotline, coloring taking a shower, either cool or hot, baking/cooking talking to your significate other, playing with your beloved pets, exercising, going for a brisk walk and lastly (i know there are more) painting...i just took up painting yesterday...my 1st one came out so great, i love it...the times where no distraction helps me is when the voices of my alters speak out and entice me to Self Harm....i'm not perfect, mobody is ...we all have our flaws...i just wanted to welcome you back and hope you get the support you need (((hugs)))

I am glad you are back on here, this is only my second day and my mother does not take anything seriously, my suicideal thoughts, an attempt, my bisexuality or anxiety or chronic deppression... I know where you are coming from and we are all here for you! talk to me if you need to or call a hotline 1-800-SUICIDE has helped me before if you are really haveing some bad thoughts. Guidance councilors at my school have pointed put a group therapy thing for bi-teens, maybe someone will have a similar program for people like us, cutters in your area....hugs! we are here for you!
