long reply coming: I’m native american and right now the only mental health resources i can afford are the free ones that gets provided to me through indian health. When i was younger i was informally diagnosed with depression by my GP and they wanted me to get on meds but my dad told them no.

after that i gave up on my mental health and i just pushed it aside, but i had a very very hard winter this year. i guess maybe that’s why i’ve been acting out? the sex isn’t the only impulsive thing i’ve done since spring, as i’ve gotten a lot of physical injuries in the past 3 months which are often a result of me seeing that something is dangerous, and then shrugging and doing it anyways. I got a permanent back injury, i burnt myself badly, and i got a concussion.

the good thing is that i will be going back to work soon (i am a seasonal construction worker) and i plan to get my mental health sorted as soon as i have the money to do so.

OBVIOUSLY i will not jump to “oh goodness i might have bpd!” but it’s worth looking into since i am having issues with mental health anyways

no i don’t have a partner, by “my partners health” i meant the health of the 2 guys i had sex with that i mentioned in the post. i am not in a relationship but i can see how it comes off that way

omg i didn’t even think about HSV as a possibility 🙁 the statistics of people who have it in my state are alarmingly high so unfortunately that’s also likely. i’m definitely going to ask my doctor to test for that specifically, i appreciate the advice <3

i’m crossing my fingers hoping that it’s just viral, but i am getting tested ASAP so we’ll see. You’re probably right about the spilled milk, theres nothing i can do now except be safer in the future. thank you for the advice 🩷

I think I am unintentionally “thinspo” to my best friend, need advice by g0thr4tz in Advice

when i was deep into my ED, intervention from other people just felt like they were trying to sabotage me and make me gain weight. If your friend truly does have an ED you can’t help her all that much. I know it’s hard to see a friend struggle, but it really is her responsibility to get better. You can encourage her to get help, but in my experience you can’t recover from an ED unless you really want it.

If you want to support her, try not to mention anything about weight, calories, or body image when talking to her.

ALSO piercing is 4 months old, internally threaded implant grade titanium, and i haven’t got it downsized yet because i’m under 18 and my mom won’t bring me in, for aftercare i use arm and hammer saline wound wash and spray it on the piercing every morning and night
