Howdy.
Just wanted to introduce myself since I just joined self-injury.
When I was younger I used to cut myself, tho not very seriously. Just things that made people wary of me, like cutting words into my arms and stuff. I feel stupid for doing it, but I was young and was being abused and didnt really care what people thought.
Some days recently when I get upset or into my low spots I just hit myself or I pick up a knife at times or a razor and hold it to my wrists and think about it.
Well, I hate being so open, but Im hoping that once I air out everything about myself, I can finally find some peace.
any advice?

talk, talk, talk...i find writing my journal, keeping a pen and paper diary and writing on these boards helps me so much. I also have a counsellor I talk to who really helps too. I never realised how important talking was when I was younger but now I realise how powerful it can be. Express how you're feeling, let it out so it doesnt turn poisonous inside you and come out negatively in the form of cutting or similar damaging behaviour. I'm here if you want to talk anytime x

*hugs* I hope you find peace to! Just keep talking to us or even just writing it down in the journal and setting it as private so only you can read if you can't tell everything... everyone is here for you!

I gave my 2 week notice last Friday 13th. Now to join you fine people in a life of leisure and nothing else to do but to look out for myself....is it just me or does that sound pretty boring? My goal was to live to retire and I guess having to take early retirement because of health reasons wasn't exactly the way I had planned things. I just can't stay in that building that is reeking mildew...
