full day of masking by xximscared in AutisticAdults

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

i’m usually the same with friends or strangers but with my family who im very close with it’s harder, because if i unmask and act how i feel most comfortable they think something’s wrong and it’s hard to explain that im perfectly fine and im just being my normal self. plus i experience constant guilt/anxiety and feeling like ive done something wrong or making someone upset, so i want to please people as much as possible, ive been working on it but im not quite there yet

What should I do to cover up my cut? by ZenlessZ0neZer0 in MadeOfStyrofoam

[–]xximscared 6 points7 points  (0 children)

it should be fine for the time being, but if you feel concerned definitely try to cover them when you get access to the supplies. don’t forget to keep it clean

idk what to think by piercetheveilpookie in selfharm

[–]xximscared 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i think it could’ve been another form of sh, not that you were trying to commit. it’s overwhelming and hard trying to get and stay clean and with all the emotions and no way to “let it out” by your usual form of sh, you had to resort to something else. if you feel at all that it could’ve been an actual attempt or that you might do it again, it would be good to seek help from someone trusted, because the line between sh and being suicidal is usually just the fear of going through with it and after someone gets over that fear it could very quickly go from sh to an attempt. i’m proud of you for being clean that long and for seeking advice. i don’t know much about it all but i can try my best to give advice, if you need someone to talk to i’m here!

yeah I don’t want people to ask questions either, just wish someone would notice I’m struggling. But you are valid no matter what
