Triggering (SI) - The Support for Everyday Struggles Thread

[DontLookUp]

Hey sorry about whats triggering you, can you try some distractions? Maybe try and get out of the house and away from the blade. PM me if you want to talk. Stay safe xxx

I'm feeling really anxious, i keep getting waves of it. I just want to feel better and calm and relaxed :[

[Catharsis]

What usually calms you down?
You could try something physical like a run, or some other exercise.
Or something arty can be quite calming, like painting or simple crafts.
The right music always works for me. I lie down with it in the dark, and deep breathing sometimes helps too.
Sorry for the uselessness >.< Hope you feel calmer.

I feel like i could cry forever & don't know what to do

[tamobhuuta]

hi YellowLemon. i'm sorry you're feeling low. why do you feel like crying?
sometimes when i feel low it helps to watch something funny. or if that'd make things worse i write down how i feel and let myself cry. *hugs*

i'm one day back at school and i hate it and myself already. just want to cut it all away.

*hug* I know how you feel, stick some random music on and start dancing madly, or get some paper and scribble every negative thought on it and rip it up into tiny pieces :)

I feel so low, i actually hate myself and I pretty much don't want to do this whole thing they call 'life' all i seem to do is sleep and still feel tired or cut and hate myself more :/

[EpicFailGirl]

*hugs* i know how you feel. i have bdd, so pretty much hate myself a lot.

my best friend invited me to dinner to make me feel better, but its on friday, and im going to stupid training weekend. my life always gets in the way of itself, all the good things happening on the same day D: and im signed up to the crappest thing

[DontLookUp]

Sorry your missing dinner, could you maybe rearrange it for another day? Also about the training weekend, you might be signed up for something really boring but try and make the most of it, just interact with the other people, make a laugh out of the boring stuff, and listen to music in the really boring bits. Also something me and my friends do, i know this isnt the same situation but if we know we are going somewhere really boring we will take a camera with and just spend the whole time taking pictures, it makes everything much better. sorry if im just being useless.. Hope your ok today :)


I failed. I always fail, im so scared im not gonna get my grades and i wont get my place in uni. I have to get into uni. I hate exams and school, i just want to drop out.

[jessicat]

i'm crappy at advice, so sorry.
but i bet you arn't a 'failure', i don't think you are :)
-hugs you- try to not drop out - i betcha you'll do great. ♥

low mood is back again and it's hit me hard. reallyreallyreally want to overdose. urgh.

[o_Abbie_o]

Don't give in, keep fighting, think of everything you have to live for *hug* hope you're okay xx

I want to cut so badly, but everyone's getting suspicious. It was boiling and i had to do pe in a long sleeved top and everyone kept asking why. I hate the questions it makes everything so hard, and i can't deal with the panic attacks either anymore.

[Datura.]

*hugs* Please try and fight the urges, there is a way out of the darkness.. can you tell anyone about the SI? It made me feel calmer about the prospect of people possibly finding out when I told someone..


My brother took something && is now in hospital , and I can't talk about it with anyone

[EpicFailGirl]

awwww *hugs* hes in hospital, so hell get better. and if you cant talk to anyone, talk to RYL - we dont know you! PM me if you want to talk. =]

i fell off the wagon. via cakes. ha.

[silentgirl]

Havent been great.
But its like there's nothing to talk about.

[SheHasHope]

Kind of like you're depressed but you can't pinpoint what's causing it?

That's kind of how I am. Depressed and planning to self injure tonight. I know it sounds bad, but when I have my mind set on it, it'll happen unless I just fall asleep from exhaustion. So I guess you can say I'm not doing to great myself. (+ religion issues that makes me want to bury my head in fluff and never come up.)

[tamobhuuta]

i hope you don't/didn't SI. is it possible for you to keep yourself occupied until you're too tired to do it? is there anyone you can talk to about the religion stuff?

it's 2 and a half weeks since i SIed and i'm feeling it. i'm meant to be stopping but debating whether it's worth it.

[Gone.]

Ahaa, I had the same problem myself a few days ago. Think about the reasons that you aren't SHing and concentrate on them. It's the whole, if you've gone two and half weeks then you can go two and a half more. Keep focussing on the positive :)

I'm in a very conflicting place right now. I want help but at the same time, I don't deserve it.

[DontLookUp]

You always deserve help even if you cant see that. Dont let it stop you from getting help, i promise you deserve it and even if you dont believe me its true. xx

I have anxiety again. hate this, hate my life, want to get as far away from here as i possibly can.

[Mad Dps]

I know what you mean. Maybe try drinking a hot cup of tea or coffee? That sometimes helps me relax.

I don't know but i have been si free for over a year now, But for no reason at all i want to hurt myself? It's been getting worse over the week. What am i going to do! =(

[DontLookUp]

im sorry, congrats on being a year free, thats great :)
Is there something in particular triggering you, could you talk to someone about it? Pm me if you need :)

I cant seem to do any of my work, i think im gonna fail everything.. hmmph..

[Gone.]

Can you sit down and do an hour now? *hugs* Motivation can be so hard to come by.

I had such a bad night last night... alcohol induced emotion I think. I hate letting people that side of me. I feel terrible.

[EpicFailGirl]

*hugs* im either a happy drunk that hugs people, and falls asleep, or a sad drunk that cries and hurts myself D: so i know how you feel, apologising and thanking people in the morning.

just feeling a little exhausted, finishing work and handing it in. only just big enough a stress to go here.

[faint]

Doing work sucks, but after its done and over with then its a huge load off your plate. :)

I don't even know what mood I'm in, stressed, anxious and scared, because my mom almost found my SH last night but she was far enough that she thought it was a rash. >.<"
