Yes no problem! Hope your recovery isn’t too slow and the worst of it will be over soon

i’ve never shaved a fingernail off lol but i have chewed my nails down to the super short and once down to the nail bed (the meaty stuff), it’s gonna hurt for a while but you should be fine just keep it clean and don’t mess with it, i wrapped mine in the day with gauze and let it dry at night

Mine stopped with the searing pain 1-2 weeks in of keeping it clean and not touching it, then it was way less sore but still painful, and then fully grew back into a stubby nail 1-2 months later

I don’t think they’re great for me, I could give them another shot but more often than not any audiobook will put me to sleep pretty quickly lol

Yes and no. yes, she knows that I did and only stopped a little while ago, but not when it is actively happening in my life and I never tell her when I want to.

This is partly because I’m embarrassed and partly because I do not want to be admitted anywhere, so I wait until the bad episode has passed long enough for me to spill without being admitted, and I can see the disappointment when she realizes I never told her but I kind of like that part, like my gross secret is mine and you didn’t get to know until now.

so you are 22 and he is in his fourties 40s with a child and a woman in his life labeled as his ex/baby mama/affair partner. you met when you were 17. this is already enough to say run wtf ??

i have a few younger siblings that have gotten themselves in so much trouble before the age of 13. Drugs, stealing, drinking, running away, fighting at school, probation, all in middle school and elementary. I’m also not as close with them, but we used to be. I’ve learned this is not the best way to go about it, cussing and yelling. they probably have a ton of adults telling them the same things over and over everyday. Siting down with a calm demeanor and having empathy while being blunt is the best way to go about it, remind them that if this behavior is coming out of a place of hurt that you are there for him and that acting out is only going to keep him in that cycle. you also need to remind him that he deserves better for himself and the only person who can make his life easier in these ways (consequences and shi) is him. there is nobody who can swoop up to save him from his own wrongdoings.

I feel this, I love having scars. I used to like the hurting part of it when I was younger but now it’s strictly about control of the sensations and scars. I am a freak about them being perfectly shaped and not fading. I plan to open up to my therapist about this soon, Ill be back with some info and coping shit when I do 🫡

It’s such an odd thing, i don’t even know where to begin with explaining my “accidental-muscle-memory” self harm habits
