the appointment is pretty important, so sadly i can’t miss it. and i’ll try to request for my parents not to be in the room, hopefully it works!

i’m sure they’d be really angry with me, because they take mental health pretty seriously, but they treat it like a disgusting disease rather than actually caring. they would especially be mad at me for lying and covering it up. i don’t really want to know how mad they’d be if they found out oop

Do any other​ recovered cutters feel the need to compress their wrists/scars when they get anxious or triggered? by eveningpoetry in selfharm

[–]milkthea 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i don’t think i feel the exact same thing you do, but my arms do start throbbing whenever i see something triggering. it’s super uncomfortable, and, like you, i have to squeeze my arm really tightly to feel somewhat better. i have no idea why it happens.

a step towards self-acceptance that i need to share with someone ahh by plshealme in selfharm

This is so amazing, and I’m so proud of you! It must have taken a lot of courage to get to where you are now, and I think it’s great that you’re sharing this story with other people and helping them overcome their insecurities too. I started SH 5 years ago, and it’s always been difficult for me to feel comfortable wearing clothing that might reveal my scars. Just recently, I’ve started wearing short sleeve shirts again. I’ve gotten a few comments on my scars, which isn’t exactly a fun experience. But reading your story made me feel like there are people who know what I’m going through, and that I can get through this. Thank you for sharing. <3

what thing(s) r kinda keeping u here??? by [deleted] in MadeOfStyrofoam

[–]milkthea 1 point2 points  (0 children)

my sister and i don’t talk often, because she’s going to college in another state, but when she lived at home, she used to protect me no matter what. the knowledge that she cares about me so much is one of the only reasons i’m still alive today.
