I feel worthless becouse of issues in my family, I just leaft an abusive wife and now I wan to work it out, but i know it would do no good , she will abuse me again. I don't know what to do, I'm confused
It is common to feel quite confused after leaving an abusive relationship. Even though they hurt you at the same time you still want someone to care for you. You did the right thing leaving though, no well deserves to be abused. It might help to receive some counselling in regards to the abuse, how would you feel about something like that? Give it time, with support you will get through this
"Recovery is something that you have to work
on every single day and it's
something that doesn't
get a day off."
I know I did the right thing for me and my daughter by leaving. I know what happened wasn't my fault, but I feel like I could have helped her with her problems if I stayed and tried something different.
I am seeking counseling now and I going to see him next week. I can already feel the effects of the Zoloft and Prozac combo I am on and I feel really good today. But its early, I hope I can keep this mood all day
It's not up to you to sort out her problems, she needs to come to that realisation herself and to help herself. It's good that you are having counselling and I hope the meds continue to help. Take care

Well, today has been good I have not cut my arm or leg at all. I thought that my ex was my trigger, but I saw her and talked to her today and I am fine. She is getting help for her issues. I don't know if we are getting back together (I think I want that) But all I know is I feel alot better and I don't want to hurt myself
well, I'm on to day 2. Yesterday after I made my post I got down and depressed but I did not harm myself. I cuts are healing nicely and the meds seem to be working. I always suffered from depression, but never this badly.
Hope to day stays good and that I have reached a turning point.
I didn't cut myself yesterday, but I ended up hiding in my room most of the day. My arm is heeling nicely and I don't want to mess it up. So far,so good
today I failed, I did do it and I am ashames of it although it felt good. It really hard for me to not do it, I know its wrong I just don't know what to do anymore
You made it for two days, that is fantastic. Every minute, every second you can go is an achievement. In your last post, it sounded like you were tired, like you didn't know what else to do...did I read correctly?
How are you doing? Try not to see it as a failure but rather a slip up that you can learn from. Was there anything in particular that triggered it for you? The most important thing is you pick yourself up from this and keep trying

I guess that I can look at it as a small achivement, The past couple of days I have made one or tow cuts, I haven't figured out my trigger yet, maybe its the thought of being alone, I don't know, sometimes I think I would feel better if I cut deeper and bleed more.
Yes i am tired, I get tired of it all sometimes, I'm tried of hurting, I'm tried of being depressed,I tired of feeling alone and at times I am tired of life. Every day I have my ups and downs, I an't predict them its like rideing a never ending roller coaster.
It can't take it anymore, I want to cut so badly, I haven't yet and I hope that this feeling will pass before I do anything dumb.
Right now I feel like there is no hope and I want to give up, I know I have alot to live for but then again I hate being everyone's problem. I don't know what to do anymore, I want to give up so badly
