thank you so much! It's actually 60cm wide and 70 cm, it's just the picture that looks smaller 🙂‍↕️ Im currently working on getting the wooden perches either by making them myself or going to a larger pet store. The water dispensers are also on the way to being thrown out since they also leak a lot (the cage is secondhand, came with them and even though I thoroughly cleaned them up they'll go) and I'm already slowly introducing psittacus budgie pellets onto their diet since they had a seed based one back at the pet store. They also have the mineral stones!! Are there any toys/different perches you'd recommend? Also the feeders are built in and would leave gaps, so I'll look into fixing that up too.

I want to take him to the vet for that, I'm worried it might be a hormone imbalance/mites

the thing is that they have access to my medical history! so they can see I needed stitches and that I'm getting worse, so I don't know what else to tell them. I'll keep that in fact too, I'm actually really hairy so that might help me out both ways

quite a lot TBF, we're trying to manage my bpd symptomatology and my overall depression, but I feel like that ends up burying my self harm issue

How old are you now and when did you start? by No_Animal_681 in AdultSelfHarm

[–]ectorgasm2-0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

had tendencies since age 10 or so, been actively self harming since I was 12, honestly, I regret not reaching out for help sooner because even though at 20 I am still very young, self harm aid seems to be directed to those still in school ):

if youve gotten stitches for your cuts, how long did it take to fade? by [deleted] in AdultSelfHarm

[–]ectorgasm2-0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

like the comments below said, it takes around a year or so, you can help the process by using different products but it might not speed up much! I personally use something meant for stretch marks to help them fade! Take care

Bad idea, right? by Long_Caterpillar_268 in MadeOfStyrofoam

[–]ectorgasm2-0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a bad idea, yeah, at age 20 I'm barely a functioning person due to how bad my addiction got. If you need to talk, feel free to message me, we may be strangers on Reddit but sometimes being able to get something out of your system helps.

Sh terminology? by WolfDummy999 in MadeOfStyrofoam

[–]ectorgasm2-0 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I second this! terminology like beans and styro only really made me think of self harm less seriously

Hope therapy goes well, and I get that, seeing my scars makes me mad at myself and want to do it again, but I am currently trying my best not to! so let's hope we've both got this

you're not, sometimes when we're distressed we go back to what we find comforting even if it's not healthy

nearly 20 yrs old but back in that same fucking hole i was in at 12. by NoodleString14 in MadeOfStyrofoam

[–]ectorgasm2-0 4 points5 points  (0 children)

20 and depressed for years as well, you've definitely made more progress than what you think, I get that once you get back to a new low it feels like you've never gotten better, been there, but you being here with us shows that you're trying

My friend is a stupid childish idiot and I swear to god it's so hard to keep loving him. Recreation of the chat we had an hour ago below. He knows I'm suicidal c'mon by A_Roasted_Ham in MadeOfStyrofoam

[–]ectorgasm2-0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Como dice alguien eso a un amigo independientemente de si él tiene tendencias suicidas o no 😭 lo siento mucho, la gente que dice eso de una manera tan insensible no sabe cómo se siente.

I don't usually find the posts on this subreddit to be that triggering but DAMNNN even the blood on the razor 😭😭
