Triggering (SI) - I need hugs

[Hope_Forever]

I'm feeling so bad today, it's been already 6 months since I stoped cutting and hurting myself, but today I'm scare I may do it again.
I'm miss my dad so much, the pain is been so bad for me to handle, 6 months ago I would have just cut myself and the pain would be gone, but now I won't cut myself, so I don't know how to handle all this pain.
I can't sleep, I can't think, I need some hugs. I'm feeling so bad

*hugs you closely* how else can you deal with this pain huni? can you write about it? can you draw/sculpt it? can you write some poetry/prose/songs about it?

do you have a psych or anyone you can talk to?

Maybe try some lavender oil (unless pregnant in which case avoid like the plague) on your pillow to help you sleep.

I can give you a whole list of aromatherapy oils that may help with your mood and suchlike if you wish.

I don't know about your situation, so I won't try and offer potshot advice on that, but I wanted to say it's really good that you haven't cut. Is there some other way you can deal with how you're feeling? Sometimes it helps just to have a really good cry.

*hugs* again sweetie, and stay safe. xx
