Self harming and depression

How long has it been since you last harmed yourselves? Like real wounds, made on purpouse
I'm fighting against depression but sometimes I feel like I need to hurt myself again
Is anyone struggling with the same shit?
I used to self harm or cutter, as they say. I can tell you the bad SHIT but you know what's up. Rather what you need to understand is you are suffering from a mental disorder and need medications to increase your serotonin levels, also dopamine levels. Your not crazy, just acting crazy. In your case, I think, your depression is the catalyst for cutting yourself. You can win this battle by getting your depression in check. There's nothing that cannot be done if your willing to try. I will say about myself that my cutting was out of control and I would end up in the hospital with wounds and get a 4 point restraint because the Dr. Would think I was suicidal, not the case. Then I would be put in a mental health unit and so on. Medication will help you to get your life back on track and stop cutting. I know.
 
I'm depressed since I ended one abusive relationship, where he always told me I worthed nothing and I also had some physical injuries, like, he tried to choke me once, threw me off the stairs, scared the shit out of me hitting walls and that kind of stuff, it was a 1 year relationship but idk, it's pretty difficult to leave when you're threatened and I knew he was capable of anything
Aaaaaand I hurt myself when I don't feel alive, I know it sounds like a emo shit, but it's real, sometimes I only hear the razor cutting through my skin but I don't feel anything until I stop cause the bleeding is way too much
I cut myself but also I tend to try to break my fingers
It is "EMO shit"

You shouldn't do that.

Also you should post your tits (disclaimer: so long as you're old enough)


Also, get your gump out you batchy twat.
 
I cut regularly, but not for punishment reasons. My actual form of "self harm" is to force myself to overeat, since I'm naturally of diminished appetite and I pride myself on my physical appearance. I do have depression, and though it's getting better lately, I have had a fair few suicide attempts. 5 attempted hangings, 2 overdoses and one stabbing, but I have Wolverine-like self healing, panicked, bandaged it up, and continued as normal the next day. Albeit very anaemic, hahahahahaha. I've given up making attempts now because I always pussy out half way through. Anyway, each time I hang myself I always do it so I can escape, so I figured I'm not particularly committed to the idea. Don't hurt yourself. It's cringey.
 
I do not seek to judge you, I seek to understand you.

In my adolescence I was also with a person who was a puncher. Physically and emotionally. For worse, it was my first girlfriend. I was 1 year and 1/2 with her, so I know what it is.. and what it feels like. It is very difficult to leave. They know very well how to handle people.

But, I know for example that when you finally end a relationship of that kind you feel as if a cancer has been removed. So I do not think it was your partner who generated the damage you feel today, if you allow me the audacity, there may be something else.

Ok. You hurt yourself when you do not feel alive. I ask you otherwise, in what moments do you not hurt yourself?
Sorry for replying up to this day
Well, a lot of things happened a few years ago when this whole situation was in it's climax. I moved from my beloved city to another one like in a week, it all happened so fast that I didn't have time to say goodbye to my friends and I moved that quickly because of a job offer for my dad, I still live with them. That's the reason I left that abusive relationship, otherwise, I don't know what could've happened. Also, the habitants of the city I'm from are always rejected and bullied in the city I'm living now so I spent a whole year without friends and hiding in the house we rented. And on the top of it, I was in the middle of a semester back in my city but they couldn't revalidate all the subjects I was taking in the highschool I attended because it belongs to a university and the study plan was waaaay different than the federal study plan so I had to re-attend highschool from the beggining. A very shitty year. And you know, the regular toughts I have about not being good enought for my career, not really accomplish something, being extremely nervous and scared of failure- I'm studying Arts and Design so a loooot of people has told me I'm gonna starve but even knowing that's a lie and that there's actually a lot of good jobs for my speciality, the idea of failure does affect me.
I don't cut when I'm with meds and not stressed, wich is rare since my career stresses the shit out of me. Also when I'm with my cats because it makes me sad to think that they wouldn't know why my bed is empty and not around anymore if I ever commit suicide.

So you really know that sometimes it is not enought, medication is just like the 30% of the whole rehabilitation. Sometimes I thinks is just a problem that could be solved with just having the willing to end it and being happy but that's not the case. Sometimes I just wanna end it all but I'm such a pussy. I will continue with the meds and the therapy, maybe some months without stress and only attending the therapist and some exercise could help.
Thanks for your support, I really appreciate that!
 
Everybody struggles!!! There will ALWAYS be someone out There that is worse off than you!
i hate that saying. a lot.
i couldn't give two shits what someone else is going through. what some stranger struggles with does nothing to mitigate my own issues. so saying that someone has it worse is just meaningless gibber gabber.

That has nothing to do with it... For you a cat is an absolutely harmless pet that does not bring you any problem, for a canary, a cat is a monster that puts life at risk...

It happens exactly with the problems that each one can have ... whatever they affect depends on each person in particular and the reality in which the person lives. As with the example of the cat, what is small for you can be giant for another, and vice versa.

That is why you can not say that another is worse than you or take it into account ... Simply because you do not know. You only know that you have different problems, but you can not know how much the problems affect each one.
 
Is this a ladies thing?
NO!!!
