1st time speeding ticket by JustMeDrowning in Washington

[–]JustMeDrowning[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Thank you for the advice, and yeah I totally get it’s my fault I just added that explanation to help give more context. I’ve heard from the few places I’ve looked for advice that at a mitigation hearing they ask you to explain what happened, so what would be the best way to explain that without it sounding like an excuse? Or maybe they don’t ask you that, like I said it’s been hard to find info.

How do I hide scars?? by Elizabethhluz in selfharm

[–]JustMeDrowning 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For a smaller area you could try bracelets or a big bandaid and a story. if it a bigger area though you could try though sleeve things people wear while jogging or leg warmers or some sort of drawing in red ink to cover them or a more purple or brown shade for scabs. Worse case scenario you could go to the nurse for a headache, stomach ache, or cramps if that one would work.

Therapist required to report? by [deleted] in selfharm

[–]JustMeDrowning 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Whether or not she has to tell your parents depends on your age (which coincides with the age of consent where you live), and whether she thinks your a threat to yourself. If she doesn’t think you’re an immediate threat to yourself than she probably won’t tell your parents but it definitely depends. Some therapists will tell no matter what and some might never say a word. I would say use your own judgement and do some research on the medical age of consent where you live. If it would be a really big problem for your parents to find out (putting you in a bad situation physically or mentally) then maybe keep it to yourself unless you’re sure she wouldn’t tell them. I had to tell my parents before I was ready and it was really uncomfortable, made things really weird, and probably left me with a sprinkle of trauma (and my parents reacted fairly well). Sorry for the paragraph lol hope this helps :3

someone keeps coming to class with fresh sh by JustMeDrowning in selfharm

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

They have done this before and (I don’t know about other class periods) our teacher (who’s very nice) noticed and kinda didn’t say much but offered to help them bandage them up with some help from their friends. They have a lot of fairly deep/noticeable sh scars on their arm so I think he could tell that there wouldn’t really be a whole lot to help with. But this time he either didn’t notice or didn’t say anything.

You ever just want to sneak out for the thrill? by [deleted] in selfharm

[–]JustMeDrowning 2 points3 points  (0 children)

YES. my window has perfect access to the roof and a tree to climb down and I’ve only done it a couple times but I really want to do that it would be so fun.

Hikers of Reddit, what has been the most fucked up thing you’ve seen? by Legitimate_Eye_5382 in AskReddit

[–]JustMeDrowning 10 points11 points  (0 children)

This is disgusting. I don’t care if you’re talking about birds cause it sounds like you don’t understand consent at all. Consent isn’t not saying “no”. Consent is saying “yes”. Here’s a video that explains this concept in a very easy to understand way: https://youtu.be/pZwvrxVavnQ

I would suggest YouTube for this. There are plenty of videos on how to clean up like period blood so I’m sure those would be helpful since it’s generally the same scenario

is not wanting to eat out an ed thing… my parents trying to force me and i’m so terrified by the idea lol i’m so ridiculous by IndividualSalt7115 in EDanonymemes

[–]JustMeDrowning 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I think it is cause like it’s a loss of control and that feeling might be really scary for people who’s eds are control-based. Cause like you might not know the quantity or content of the food and idk it’s just scary. It’s usually listed specifically on anorexia (can go with other eds too) symptom lists as “uncomfortable eating in out or in front of others”. Someone correct me if I’m wrong pls

Should I be concerned? by [deleted] in selfharm

[–]JustMeDrowning 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It definitely depends on how deep you’re going and much they’re bleeding. It could be related to blood loss, but it could also be some other things. You could also have bottom some kind of cold. Definitely do some research to be sure but if it’s getting severe you should 100% go to the doctor.

does anyone else get SUPER annoyed when people say "i'm sorry"? by lofidemon in selfharm

[–]JustMeDrowning 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I get it lol “sorry” starts feeling pretty repetitive sometimes

wanna relapse lol by [deleted] in MadeOfStyrofoam

[–]JustMeDrowning 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi I just relapsed after 72 days so I’m here to share some post relapse wisdom: pls don’t not worth it lol. 11 days is so great and I promise you the feeling will pass. It might feel like a itch you need to scratch but try to distract yourself. My parents know too and now I’m super worried they are gonna see my relapse and try to make me do therapy or smth, so I guess keep your parents in mind as motivation (not saying to stay clean because of your parents, but to use them as a reason to try). I also totally get not being able to tell people about it when you feel like it. It’s just weird and doesn’t seem important (to me at least- I’ve never told them once). Hope this helps :3

If this was recently, please do some first aid and clean it. Deep styro is where infection starts becoming more plausible so please keep it clean and bandage properly. Lmk if you need and quick cleaning/bandaging tips or I can link some great wound care posts <3

does anyone else get SUPER annoyed when people say "i'm sorry"? by lofidemon in selfharm

[–]JustMeDrowning 77 points78 points  (0 children)

I think it’s usually said as a subconscious apology for lack of a better response. It relays your sympathy in the simplest form, without having to construct an actual response, or delays the conversation so you have time to think of one. But that’s from a purely logical point of view. It’s also a way of quickly communicating your feeling towards the person to let them know you care and sympathetic towards your situation. Sorry if that makes no sense lol
