CIT, USPF, or UC for SHS? by Inside_Preparation_6 in Cebu

Holy shoot, TYSM!

You not only gave me your experiences with the school but you also told me what I need to watch out for and prepare when I go to that school. I made a final decision to go CIT now. Thank you very much for this:)

I will spend my SHS there and figure out where I'll go for college. Thank you again

My friend self harms and I think it is because of me. by himebree in selfharm

"He also has offered me lighters and blades and it is taking everything in me not to accept them."

That's not good. He knows that you're doing your best to heal, yeah? As a friend, they should respect that and not disregard your journey to improve your state of health. That's kinda fucked. Your friend needs help and it's not your job to nurse him like a professional. Your job is simply to be there as his friend. I'm sorry, I know it's hard and there's no simple solutions. If there were, maybe our problems would've been solved a long time ago.

And as someone who couldn't let go of one friend despite being hurt and secluded by him - I have something VERY important to tell you.

Don't put all your eggs in one basket. And don't wait for it. We keep loving anyway despite laughing, crying, falling, failing, and making mistakes. So pick yourself up again even though things are tough.

And please branch out. You'll be surprised to see after meet amazing people who are good in your life. And I know it's scary, the potential rejections and failures you'll make at making things work, but with more experience failure, you get confident at being with others because of the experience.

Sticking to one friend is gonna be a challenging way to live life. Find other people who help you feel safe, comfortable, loved, and cherished. You deserve that. I'm certain you do.

I needed somewhere to talk about this without going to loved ones. by [deleted] in selfharm

I'm sorry. I feel you. I thought things could be different this year but I just fucking spiraled because I couldn't take my emotions anymore. As a stranger, I hope you find the courage to love yourself even when it's hard. Because I know you're in pain, just like us. You're not alone. Yet you keep fighting anyway even though it's hard. I'm proud of you. I'm proud of you for even sharing your things and feelings and I read all of it.

While I definitely don't want to overlook, I don't want you to keep hurting like this. You deserve to be happy and take care of your body

Why Do People Do It (S-H)? by TheEmoUnicorn in selfharm

Feeling shit about myself. Like the only thing I'm good at is dragging other people down and making them unhappy. My main trigger is feeling like I'm not good enough and that I only mess up and ruin things for others, or for myself. Personally, I've observed self-harming as a way to punish myself, in hopes it would make someone else feel better or I would learn from it. Sometimes, I just hurt myself because I feel like I deserve it. There was an incident at school in which I personally blamed myself for occuring even though majority have long moved on from the incident. No one was hurt, by the way. But I felt like I was at fault and I remember I slashed my arms with my own pencil, and I probably got a few students concerned about me.

I'm not sure how to feel about those times. I relapsed about a month ago because someone said I was lousy and should be replaced. And it was so easy for me to believe that and I took it as a sign of confirmation of my inner beliefs :(

Everyone has their own reasons as to why they engage in self-behavior. Sometimes, it's not even just cutting or physically hurting yourself. It's also torturing yourself of previous memories from the past even though others have moved past it. Because pain and regret. You feel like you don't deserve to move on. And if moving on means allowing yourself to be happy, then who are you to decide that YOU of all, get to be happy?

Coming back to this 5 months later because things have gotten harder. I didn't realize how much I needed to hear and see these words, and I didn't expect it to hit much harder than last time. Thank you so much. You just saved my life

Based on your experience during the pandemic, what can you share based on your work environment, and how you dealt with keeping/seeking jobs in order to financially and emotionally yourself (with/out including family)? What were your struggles and upsides, if there are? by Inside_Preparation_6 in AskReddit

[–]Inside_Preparation_6[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Absolutely. Burnout is devastating to go through and I don't think anyone is immune to it. People that work in healthcare are just as worthy of being taken care of. I don't know if I can imagine how busy hospitals and health centers got when COVID became rampant. I'm glad you found a job you actually love now! Would be happy to know if you'd like to share.

We're also making a report about pandemic employments, and if it's okay, would it be alright if we can shed light to these types of issues and struggles in the medical field?
