This announcement invites the community to share personal stories and support strategies in a non-judgmental environment. It highlights the importance of peer connection and understanding for those navigating personal struggles within our active social community.
I know this is a very sensitive topic and I’m still kind of dealing with it, but I just wanted to know like when you do have that urge to hurt you know yourself what do you do? cause there’s times where yes I have people that help me but then the power becomes too strong. I guess I just wanna know other people stories cause I know mine and I’m honestly doing OK with that. I haven’t done it in a while and what I mean is like I think what the last time was a month and a half so that’s good. But ya.
I know a lot of people say like don’t hurt your body or whatever I understand that like that’s not I get it but it’s it’s not about the scars
it’s not really about how you feel after it’s how you feel now and I think for the people that don’t really understand like just stop like like people are like it’s not that hard to just stop
but honestly makes me so mad because they think you could just stop, but it’s just not that easy.
I don’t think a lot of people know this about me and so I think a lot of people that are friends with me on this social media will get a little shocked
and I’ve talked to people about it that includes my boyfriend and a lot of other people, but it still does happen like just the thoughts not actually doing it, but the thoughts are pretty strong
do it again like for the people that don’t understand you know this to be honest I don’t really care about the scars later. I just care about now like how you feel and all that.
A lot of people did say get help which I’ve tried and it just haven’t. I just didn’t help so yeah.
oh, and I guess the reason that I didn’t really share it was cause some people that do do it our attention seekers and I’ve been called one when I did say that I did it and I think that was the last time I’ve ever told someone I think that was like a year and a half ago my boyfriend is the only one that I told now. And now that I’m sharing it here I guess I just wanna know what it’s like for other people too like I’m know I’m not alone, but I also just don’t want the haters to come in.
and cus i’m still dealing with it the thoughts yk?
you get therapy and call 911 bc when u do….u might end up doing it and seriously hurting urself so best to get help now
hurt someone else instead
duh
I have seen a few people do it. I do find it disturbing
There is nothing good anyone anyone or one's self
true
i’ve tried
it never rlly accomplishes anything
but
i know my limit
Hmm. What do the hurting do? Satisfaction? Pain redirection?
Why do it
well i’ve been tell that a lot
i guess
the first time i did it i felt empty
i wanted to feel smt
i redirected that with pain
Did it work?
i felt pain so yes
it did
BUT
i guess
Not enough?
sometimes
get a job instead
sometimes i do it remind me of what i failed
i have one lol
So besides that. You don't want an alternative?
i don’t know any
and i hate talking abt it
i know i am rn
but it’s with people idk
like in real life
Hmm.
no one in my life that’s close to me know
knows
i hide that
Oh. Why are you empty though
well
i guess just the stress of growing up
like is honestly exciting but depressing and
all this
Oh. What did you picture it would be like
idk but not this
Hmm. What's wrong with this
yeah thats like teenager kind of thing
to do
well idk just rlly boring
lll
Oh. That's it
ya
well i guess it’s more
i just explain it
yk?
the highs and lows kills me
running the high
You like alone or still with fam?
then crashing
fam but
they just make life harder
if that makes sense
Oh. Expectations?
i’m not saying i’m not loved
i’m just not…
eh they r annoying
they care to much
leave me alone will be the expectation
Would being on your own in your own place make a difference?
prob not
but it’s more of like
idk how to explain it
here
let’s say
You want freedom?
i go get a puppy
right
idk what i want yk?
and i get the puppy dies
Hmm. I know about your old dog story
that’s my life
ya…
it’s like
life is great
then crashes
like i can’t fully let myself be happy
So what do you want then
cus something ALWAYs happens
ik it’s life
to feel heard?
to be loved?
to be understood
i am all those things
but
nothing is ever enough
it’s kinda sad
it’s not like i’m asking to be depressed
Hmm, you know how it feels to be heard,loved and understood?
i’m just me
cus
that’s all i felt
but
there has to be more
right?
it is it all in my head
I don't know. It depends on what more looks like for you
idk
ya
i understand that
i just
i have energy
right
but
Hmm
sometimes it feels forced
yk?
like i’m happy
but i’m not
then i’m confused
You are forcing yourself to be happy?
You think so?
maybe with a mask
i never rlly put the mask down
sometimes i feel like it’s an act
it’s like what is going on
Oh. So,tell everyone that you are okay, something like that?
i’m not in a play
oh i tell everyone in good and amazing
Well, it's your life. You are always in play
just so i avoid the sorryy
Why? Because you don't explain how you really feel?
or avoid the questions
true
put your hurt in someone else, get a gun
Oh. You don't want pity
i want to but idk how to?
plus
Devil's son
ppl have their own stuff to deal with
yk?
why should that be your problem?
Yeah. But that doesn't mean we can't stop to hear you out
Being happy is kinda of a simple routine for some people
As long as I get to fellow that routine, it's trilling
true
hmmm
okay i’ll brb
i’m somewhere
Cya
