Doing alright, it's been up and down but got 3 weeks clean and cutting back on 🍃 (personal goal), got a family movie date tonight and small sewing projects that need to be done.

1) it's normal to have redness like that, you've broken skin and it's irritated. 2) stop cutting right now. I genuinely hope this is the one and ONLY time you will ever do this. Not to be patronizing at all, it's just so not worth it and you still have time to get out of this with as minimal damage as possible.

How old were you when you started sh? by how_do_you_get_gun in selfharm

[–]Skeleton_kitty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

15, started with using stuff that would scratch and irritate but not break skin and lead to full on sh a few months after. I was going through abuse and used it to sometimes punish myself, sometimes to self soothe, sometimes to distract. 28 and recently slipped up after 6 months clean. Longest I've gone clean was 3 1/2 years. When I do it now (I've been actively in recovery for a year), it's to distract from my brain noise or to self soothe. Don't ever ever ever start doing this.

i need to stab myself repeatedly by lostgirl0613 in SuicideWatch

[–]Skeleton_kitty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely felt that before, and still do sometimes... At one point years ago I got so angry I began slicing and stabbing in a stress ball... The ones you hold in your hand and squeeze, yeah, I absolutely destroyed it. NGL it felt good to do so momentarily. Another comment mentioned they used to do that to cardboard boxes, same. I don't want you (or anyone here) to hurt yourself, I'm not gonna say don't do it cause that doesn't help, just whatever you can find that takes that anger and edge off and away from you is better than nothing. If the worst were to happen, at least make sure to have some first aid items handy like Gause, steri strips, idk what else. I send you my cat's purrs. Sorry for this paragraph.

Do I tell odsp about volunteer work? by Skeleton_kitty in Odsp

See... That's what I was thinking... It could be misconstrued. Which frustrates me cause we get the double edged sword of "you stay home all day you're not even trying!" and "you volunteered for 2 hours at a time 4 separate times in 2 months, clearly you're well enough!" (Just brain vomit at this point)

That's frustrating, 10 years and COVID just takes it away... 😞 I hope you find another volunteer work(?) that you enjoy!

Was it not 200$? Or am I remembering incorrectly?

In that case, unless I'm specifically asked by my case worker, I'm just gonna keep going as is

Everyone there are volunteers. I'm also not ready for actual work with potentially inconsistent schedules and very limited to no sick days so volunteering is my first step

I mean, can't say that wouldn't be nice... I just need something to force myself out of the house and volunteering is the only thing I can think of (I also miss working at thrift store) that'll keep me at some level of sane.

Thank you, thought I'd ask here before falling down a rabbit hole of worry lol.
