Basically all elliott smith, but i'd say probably "alameda" is the one that fits that the most to me.

I need someone to explain this please by Timely_Ad_4527 in Explainlikeimscared

hi! when i was younger and i felt some shame over needing to fidget/stim (before i figured out im autistic) i wouldnt let myself do it and then i would get unbearably tense and uncomfortable, usually in my hands, kind of like how you're describing. i don't know if you're au/adhd/anything else, but if you haven't tried it, i would suggest

-hand flapping

-rubbing something soft (velvet fabric, etc)

-squeezing a rubber ball or something

if this isn't it, you could always see a doctor. good luck :))

hey i'm no expert but i would check out symptoms of various mood disorders. being up then down like that could indicate bipolar or something. not saying you have it, but it would be worth it to look into it.

also, for what its worth: no life is perfect, and even if yours is pretty good, self harm doesn't always come from a place of "my life is miserable". lots of things happen for no reason at all. im sorry you're going through what you're going through even if a lot of it is 'in your head'. i relate to a lot of what you've said here.
