I feel about the same way. To me, self harm is a way to escape and connect with something inside me that has nothing to do with the outer suffering. Afterwards I always feel at peace, the pain turns to some type of peace I can't quite describe. I always sleep better after. Also, doesn't have much to do with this, but I love your Ethel Cain references on your profile :) Ptolomea is such an amazing song.how ironic, i just finished cleaning my cuts. i had been clean for a few days, but you know how it is. there are still self harm communities online, although they seem to skew a bit younger. personally, for me, self harm is what takes my mind off of wanting to CTB. it's not about the pain, but the pleasure that comes with it.
my psych was just considering these types of meds. naltrexone sounds familiar. i already have a bad track record of taking my meds consistently or at all (i have a lot of paranoia symptoms surrounding our healthcare system, on a bad night i'm convinced i'm being poisoned and i quit all my meds cold turkey) so we haven't gotten there yet.I hear you on this one. I am scarred everywhere too and have a lot of nerve damage. I Leo don't know what I gain from it but it isn't for emotional regulation. I think it is trauma/ocd related. Are you on naltrexone?
YES! you're the first one to comment on that. i love ethel cain.Also, doesn't have much to do with this, but I love your Ethel Cain references on your profile :) Ptolomea is such an amazing song.
Hell yeah! She's far too good. Also your header, too! I love that movie.YES! you're the first one to comment on that. i love ethel cain.
lameI wish I could self harm but I get checked by my boyfriend..
honestly i have felt the same for years. I started when i was 7, and i'm now in my mid 20s and at this point it's addiction. It's not longer something that grounds me but it's a voice that continuously tells my brain "deeper deeper" until im cutting through fat and exposing the inside of leg. I can't feel content until i can at least stick my fingers inside my cuts. It hasn't always been that way, just started off as smaller but pretty decently deep cuts or breaking the colored pencils i had as a kid and dragged the woood into my skin and stabbing myself with it. But started to progress more and more... I really wish i could understand why i feel i NEED to do it. It's not longer painful, i'm used to it... but something about it eases my brain... It's honestly very embarrassing when it comes up in topic with people in person.. when they see it if i wear shorts or ripped jeans they obviously have a reaction. It's very hard to explain to someone and jsut humiliating... but on the same flip side i really enjoy seeing the scars along with feeling the raise of the scar tissue. I can pretty much remember what each one is from, and what i was going through and i have 18+ years of scars on my thighs. Makes me feel mental for sure.i've been self harming for four years. for me it's not a coping mechanism anymore, it just became an addiction/need at this point .
I do, but not too often anymore. Before I received help, I would constantly cut on both my arms over and over. Last time I cut myself was the beginning of Feb. it's off and on for me. But it was way worse before.I've been self harming consistently for over a year and off and on earlier in my childhood, does anyone else? It's one if the only things that makes me feel sane and a lot of self harm communities have been disappearing :(
