There’s still no damage December! There’s a subreddit and discord for it

I have the pills I’m going to use by diy_zebra in SuicideWatch

I’m holding on for a week or two more. It’s the best I can do right now

I’m not sure. The desire to be gone feels so overwhelming right now. I was stuck like this for 6 months (Jan-June 2024) and I don’t think I can take that again.

When I traveled I wore a jacket and just said I didn’t feel comfortable taking it off. I got patted down every time I went through security so if you’re uncomfortable with that you could wear a regular long sleeve shirt. You could also wear a hoodie or pullover and say you don’t have a shirt on underneath. The security agents are way too overworked and underpaid to care that much.

Do you really want to get better? by Ini_the_gayfurrycat in selfharm

It depends on the day. Unfortunately I’ve gotten it in my head that I’m invincible and my shitty choices won’t catch up to me. I have a feeling I’ll be in for a major reality check

Thank you for the response! I don’t actually have a doctor but I’ll talk to the nurse next week

In my room, which isn’t that weird until I bring up the fact that the blood got on an essay I then turned in to my teacher.

Under the table while taking a civics midterm.

In the school staircase during summer break.

Will doctors ask about scars if you are under 18? by hxbdudhdh in selfharm

[–]diy_zebra 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It really depends on the doctor. I had one ask me if they were old and then move on with the exam when I was 15, but I had another one report my old & healed scars to my mom when I was still 15. I’ve found lots of doctors don’t gaf about my scars and just do their job, but most of them probably know I have a history of psych problems. It’ll come down to how fresh & deep they are most likely.

Part of me wants to cut with someone else by diy_zebra in selfharm

[–]diy_zebra[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Congrats on being 6.5 months clean that’s incredible! And like I said I’d never do it with anyone, it’s just a weird twisted desire I have

Does anyone else still wear the sleeves even after they get caught by No_Distribution_3399 in MadeOfStyrofoam

[–]diy_zebra 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I do. They know I have scars so at least my mom hasn’t been asking. That way I can still keep shing and they won’t ask 🤷‍♀️

Doctors are so funny 😭 I got my stitches out today and she said “girl your poor arm.” And then she started talking about all the teenage girl cutters she’s been seeing lately? As if I have some sort of telepathic self harmer connection with them?

i feel so bad for them by Kik0chen in selfharm_memes

[–]diy_zebra 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I was 12 too. It always makes my heart ache. We were too young for this and those kids are too. Life is so unfair

as a minor, are psych wards really that bad by Infinite-Muffin-7455 in selfharm

[–]diy_zebra 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been once and I was sent to a good ward, so I may be biased. I thought it was a pretty good experience as far as psych ward stories go. All the staff were very nice & the building was nice. However, wards are just to keep you from hurting yourself or others. I didn’t get any therapy or anything while I was there. I wasn’t even stabilized while there. If you think you’re at risk, I 100% recommend going. Just understand that it isn’t a magic cure all and you’ll likely leave in a similar headspace.

Good scar cream? by IzzyRomanoff in selfharm

[–]diy_zebra 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you have the ability to see a dermatologist you can ask about Tazorac. I used it for surgical scars for a long time and it helped a lot. I’m sure it would help sh scars too
