umm...

Question

So, this morning....I grabbed my scissors...and gave myself 9 tiny cuts. I'm not completely sure why I'm doing this just that I deserve it! I made a post about yesterday when I cut myself twice with scissors at school,and I'm kinda freaking out!

Answer 1

it makes you weaker if you cut.

Not really. The cuts are tiny.

---

Not weaker physically. Emotionally and mentally.

---

it does not matter. You are giving into depression. You need to #StayStrong

---

I...don't have control..

---

I know you do. I have anxiety/depression
My doctors told me how to slowly gain a little bit if controll.

Answer 2

DON'T. CUT!!!

Learn from MY mistakes here, never cut! Use a red pen, put ice on your skin, (two actual methods to use instead) something if you need too, but don't cut. You don't deserve it, you are perfect the way you are.

Luna.....does this mean......I have depression?

---

Possibly. Probably. I can't really decide that. Do you feel sad 24-7, feel suicidal and like there is a weight in your chest kinda dragging you down? If so, yeah. But if you do, remember that you CAN get through it. I have, and nothing has actually changed since I was depressed besides my mood. If this just started actually happening in like the last month or two it will probably be easier to stop now, but if it's been going on longer it might have formed a habit, which is a little harder to break, but I will still help the best I can! Anytime!

Sorry for chiming in, but I think so. Talk to a doctor :)

This is a picture of my hand. All the red bumps are cuts. My first therapist appointment in two weeks. Although the main reason I asked my mom to get a therapist is because of my anxiety, my mom doesn't know about the cutting. And Luna, I don't think suicidal, cuz imma afraid of dying, but I do sometimes wish I could just fade away and cease to exist. I'm not sad 24/7 but I do get bad feelings about myself. It's been two days and cutting myself already feels normal even though it hurts

---

Well at least you are not suicidal, you are a great person and don't deserve those thoughts. Don't cut anymore, I know they are small but it doesn't make it different than what I used to do. Just please don't.

---

I don't know what to say. I try to stop, but like I said, it's hard.

---

At least you're trying to stop

I'm sorry, Jellyfishlover. I hope you can recover soon. I'm not gonna say what to do, because sometimes that just makes things worse. I'll pray for you.
