Don't know what I can do

 I'm feeling so anxious and alone with my thoughts.  I wanna cut my wrists and feel the pain and relief that cutting gives me.  Maybe, I am bipolar since I get crazy mood swings at times where I'm happy then anxious then frustrated then upset then lonely.   I have family but I don't trust them enough to tell them that I'm struggling again.  They wouldn't understand and would overreact which I can't handle at the moment.

i am very different from you because i have self harmed all my life, but it never brought me relief. i've wondered about that so often, why i seem to be different from other self harmers - that i don't feel relief. i'll be happy to be your friend and help out and give you support if i can. ds is a wonderful place for support. i guess we are all on our own journeys. similar but different but similar again. i think here you may find people who really do understand. you will have that support.
