Hi, i'm new i'm rih or ri' (for shorter) I hopefully won't be here long enough though for these to matter.
I figured i'd share a story in the last few weeks i've grown close to this girl, just friends extremely platonic. But we opened up about our mental health I tried not to scare her as I talked about ctb'ing very little more-so just everything that leads me to want to. Anyways, she's been struggling a lot and knew I used to SH, she was in the middle of a panic attack and called me. About to cut herself, I care about her so I started the little points that I used to stop, it's only temporary, wanting to harm is like a wave it'll calm down, breathing work, distractions yada yada, as she described almost pinpoint perfect how I felt when I used to cut it has made me crave it to a huge degree, I had thrown away my kit but already have made a new one, i know it's so hypocritical to talk down someone only to crave it yourself, i'm trying not to, as I feel it'll dull my will to continue with a chosen method, even though it's nigh impossible to get SN in europe.
I just wanted to share a weird interaction probably not everyone has had. It seems so superficial to care for someone when I want to ctb, i'm just curious if others have any stories to share that's similar. Like when I was younger i had this 'pact' with an online friend where neither of us would cut as long as neither did it but it broke down fast.
