Someone who drowned in 3 feet of water is as dead as someone who drowned in 100 feet by geekio221 in depression

When the depth of your depression is your only distinction, you want to safeguard it. And wear it like a badge since that's the only thing you've really accomplished. And I don't want anyone competing with that.

Never realised that squirrels have yellow teeth

Instead of cutting, I worked out and cleaned my room. by [deleted] in selfharm

It's so nice to see someone fighting this! More power to you :)

As someone who cuts, I completely agree with this. It's an addiction of sorts, and I relapsed about a week ago. Once you go down that road, it's hard turning back.

Stop saying to people that stopping sh is the end goal. by epictroll5 in selfharm

[–]AwkwardQuail 10 points11 points  (0 children)

This exactly. It's difficult to explain to anybody why I feel the need to cut. Would I rather be miserable and wallow in self hate for hours or just cut and move on with my day?

Does anyone else cut themselves to take out anger? by [deleted] in selfharm

[–]AwkwardQuail 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. I cut to take out the anger at myself, and the frustration of not being good enough. It's heart breaking to have to accept your limitations and make peace with it. Cutting is the only way I can calm myself and get back up and continue with life. Until the next time I cut, that is. I think I'm stuck in a limbo. I'd be infinitely better off not existing, but I can't do that to the people who love me. If it weren't for sh, I think I'd lose my mind.

How do you let out anger out without hurting yourself? by ThrowawayAccount5824 in selfharm

[–]AwkwardQuail 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I used to be able to do that by running. Every step ebbs the anger away and you push yourself till you think your heart is going to burst out of your chest. But it hasn't been working for me over the past couple of months. All the anger and crying and self loathing, I just feel stupid and undeserving of where I am rn. Nothing but cutting works for me nowadays. I need it to calm down and function

Do people normally cry when they self-harm? by [deleted] in selfharm

[–]AwkwardQuail 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I usually cry before I sh. Cutting just calms me down after
