Triggering (SI) - Disfigure Myself...

[cutupangel09]

I hate these type urges. They've started coming back again. I want to cut my face up or I want to disfigure anything sexual on my body. I hate it. I know I won't do it probably. I just don't know how to deal with it. No one seems to for that matter. I just get a lot of telling me not to than trying to tell me how not to feel this way. Any advice/support would be much appreciated at this point definitly. I feel like I'm running on empty at this point. Thankx.

Hey,
All I can suggest right now are distractions, and talking to people about this as much as possible. Try to take your mind off of this, because listening to these urges and acting upon them is not wise, not for now or the future.
Do you know if anything has triggered these urges? Have you anyone you can talk to about this, and these feelings & urges? Remember that RYL hosts a live help service which you can use at any point - providing it's online - and also hosts an e-mail service, if you don't want to use live help or if it happens to be offline. Furthermore, there are plenty of helplines out there to help people, with someone always at the other end waiting to listen to you & to try to help you.
Try to keep yourself strong, and positive. You can fight these urges, trust me.
Take care, x

I can't add much to what Rach said about distractions. Distractions are most often the best way to deal with all urges, and you should find that once you're used to ditracting yourself when you get urges, you start to get less urges.

I get urges to cut my face up sometimes, and I know in my case it's because I'm ugly, I look it and feel it so the way I see it, I might as well ruin my face even more, but if you take time to think about it, do you really want to disfigure your face? Even if it made you feel better for a bit, you would have to live with the effects which would be extremely distressing. If it's a similar feeling that makes you want to disfigure yourself, it might help to look into some things about improving self esteem.

Take care, you can fight these urges.
