I dont know your situation, I do struggle with my body not as I wish it to be, and that it is a desperate and horrific place to find yourself. It sounds you are at a low ebb, the weight of it all threatening to be too much. I can not see self mutilation being the answer on any level, the harm that can come from something so extreme may be beyond repair, and ultimately make matters much worse.

I think that you need to look beyond your own internal dialogue to find help. Your focus has become to narrow on what you see as a failing or a fault. look up metaphorically as well as literally find some beauty in yourself because I know as well as you know there is some. Let it shine bright in yourself and focus on that as best you can.

Beyond that, find someone to talk to, a therapist is often a recommendation, a friend, a helpline even a stranger on a forum! I think it would be good for you to express yourself honestly with someone who can listen and give advice.

I hope that is of some little comfort or help,
Stay strong honey. xx
