...again with the videos.
I should probably stop being surprised. Heh.
Um, so, I could really use some prayer right now. I can't focus. I'm desperately in need of some downtime, but I just don't have any until tomorrow. Stress and frustration are way up there at the moment, at I'm on the verge of a meltdown I really can't have right now.
I'm going to go make myself some tea now and try to calm down.
:(

Then wear the gold hat, if that will move her;
If you can bounce high, bounce for her too,
Till she cry "Lover, gold-hatted, high-bouncing lover,
I must have you!"

Hi I'm new to this forum & I've never actually self harmed before but am constantly thinking about cutting myself. I've never opened up to anyone or told anyone this.
I guess I'm posting this because it scares me that I'm thinking this way & think I need help.
I've felt this way because I want to feel pain, I want to feel something.
I read that people who have been abused as a child are more likely to self harm, which is true of myself & am wondering if this is why I am so messed up & constantly thinking about it.
Is there anyone out there that can give me advice?
First of all. DON'T DO IT. My first cut was the worst thing i ever did. Go and read the SI warning label here. (note it can be triggering). It is all true. I know it personally.

yes, the si warning label was very convincing. i don't want to really do it but think it might just make me feel better for just one glorious moment. but i can see it wouldn't be just one time, that it would get worse.
Is there a way to help stop the thoughts in my head? I think about it so much. i don't feel confident to confide in anyone close because I don't think anyone would understand. I feel they would think I'm a freak and pity me. Then I would just feel worse because I would end up worrying about how I made them feel.
arkady--i'm glad you found us.
[link] this goes to a web page that talks about the link between abuse and self-harm from a christian perspective. If you have more questions, just ask--I've been around long enough to learn a few things ;)
can someone pray i dont go completely mad this week? =\ so much coursework to do... bloody midterm week =s

Yesterday I showed up to a class to find out that I had a test... (which I obviously failed...)
I haven't been able to fall asleep before 4 am for 3 weeks now... Which I think says a lot about my stress levels...
I can't seem to remember anything... There's this one girl (whose name I can't remember atm) who I've apparently been introduced to at least 5 times, but every time I see her again I have no memory of it...
My eating has been a lot worse this week than the past 2 weeks...
I just emotionally feel like junk.
And somewhere in between all the tests, I'm supposed to apply to college... which involves first deciding where I want to go... *sigh*
arkady we all know those feelings that people may think we are crazy but self harm is a very drastic step. It shows something very wrong is going on in someones world. Can you tell one person. (If you are under 18 perferably an adult) so they can help you. That alone will improve your life by 10 fold.

Haha I noticed that, and it's nice to see some new(or new since the last time I dropped in at least) people around as well as the, dare I say "veterans"? Lol It's nice to be back, hopefully I can stick around this time :)
I try to love the sinner but it's more than the sin will allow. I've looked a long time into the dark,
hoping the truth would show me how

Urgh! i just wrote a long set of prayer requests and it got deleted!!!
shorter version =
My friend and her little sister are planning to tell their parents about their seperate experiences of sexual abuse, on saturday morning. As all chrsitians, i pray that God is completely in the centre of it all. Parents know both abusers, who i believe are going to be named for future protection of little sister.
My friends' has been dealt with in an amazing God-filled way but little sisters' happened more recently and she hasnt yet received any help.
Also, my other friend has her care plan assessment (im gonna be there) on monday morning. I'd really love prayers for her as shes been really struggling recently and my prayer is that God will be completely in control of her treatment and healing.
Ive been lurking for a while, praying for you guys but havent felt able to contribute recently, will do soon though.
Well..this is pretty cool.. erm..well ive a new christian. i was saved August 19, 2009. Im 19 years old..
erm..well..i require lots of help with this..
im the only christian in my family (my older sister is, but shes in japan, so it doesnt exactly help me here..) so i noticed that as pumped as i was for Jesus, being in my house has blocked that out. and idk, my other friend has noticed too, when you get to my house you feel this extreme heaviness, its not good...so ive been trying to connect with God, like i had when i was in japan with my sister..but its almost impossible.
and well..i just..i dont know what to do
i feel like im not close to God at all anymore, and i keep doing stuff that makes him even more distant..i just feel like a failure as a Christian..
