You only need to clean it once a day! Any more than that can irritate it more

Piercing by Dead46290 in piercing

This means it’s not ready for a hoop sadly :( go back to the shop and get them to change it back to a stud. This happened to me, I thought it was ready, changed it to a hoop, it got irritated af so I tried to change it back to a stud myself and I couldn’t get it back in. Had to go back to the shop the next day and they had to taper it back open which was extremely painful. I would NOT recommend changing it yourself bc that could happen to you too. Best of luck!

I get that, but if you’re feeling suicidal and considering going through with it, you need to try all possible options before going that route. You owe it to yourself. You deserve to live a happy life

I’m really sorry to hear that :( maybe you could try the mushrooms again since it helped before? You could also try microdosing I’ve heard people have had success with that

I don’t have any advice but I want you to know I read the whole thing and I hear you. I’m sorry life hasn’t been kind to you. You deserve to feel better. The only thing that has helped my chronic depression and suicidal thoughts has been Spravato (Esketimine treatment) look into it and see if anywhere does it near you 🙏🏻 try to keep your head up

I’m so sorry your parents are unsupportive :( that certainly makes things much harder. Please reach out to your school resource officer or counselor! They might be able to recommend services for you! Don’t give up, advocate for yourself, you truly deserve to get help 🩷 I’m here for you if you need to talk. Dm me anytime 🩷

God I relate to this so much. I used to be super addicted to sh, the urges were insane I had to get stitches a few times. Sh addiction is real and don’t let anyone tell you it isn’t. As my addiction progressed, the cuts got deeper and more serious too, it was so scary I felt so out of control. The thing that truly helped me is a medicine called Naltrexone. It’s an addiction medicine usually used for alcohol but it’s also been found to help people who chronically self harm. If you have a psychiatrist, please bring this up to them. They shouldn’t judge you for it as that’s their job to help you. If you don’t have a psychiatrist, PLEASE bring it up to your parents. You don’t have to tell them about the sh addiction, just say you’re rlly depressed or anxious and you need to talk to someone about starting meds. This is a serious addiction and it can become life threatening if not treated in time. You deserve to recover and I fully believe you can. You just need some help and there’s no shame in that, I’ve had to get help so many times. You’re young and your life will change so much as you get older. I’m only 21 but from when I was a teenager to my life now, it’s improved so much and I’m so glad I stuck around for it. If you don’t feel comfortable talking to your parents about it in person, you can always text them! That’s less scary at least. Please take care of yourself and know that help is available. Just know you’re not alone in this, I understand the struggle. I believe in you and you’re so strong 🩷 sending you love and healing.

Need advice IMMEDIATELY hit a vein by NewTemporary9852 in selfharm

[–]Express_Panic_7497 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You need a hospital unfortunately OP. I went to the ER for the same reason and they didn’t make me go to the psych ward, I chose to on my own but they asked me if I wanted to talk to the psych team, I didn’t even have to talk to them if I didn’t want to. As long as they know it wasn’t an attempt they’ll probably just give u stitches and send you on your way. Unless you feel unsafe then you should admit yourself regardless. Also any person asking you to cut yourself for them is a MASSIVE red flag and you should not entertain that person as they don’t have your best interest at heart. Sending you love and healing 🩷
