Whats with people that just judge you by a problem you are having?! :evil: I mean i self-harm and its really hard being able to cope with it after my parents found out .. and another 3 months down the line after they found out and made me promise to stop i'm stillng doing it and they don't know ... and i've been doing it a year or just under that now ...
But what i don't get is why people try to judge me because of this .. and try to tell me to grow out of it .. or tell me to fu*k off and deal with my own sh*t ... it doesn't exactly help situations as i self-harm mainly because i hate myself .. it's just annoying because people dont tend to try and find reasons or try to understand whats really going on ... i filled out a form online about 4 hours ago about my self-harming:
why: Because for once its me that can take control over my own pain and nobody else that is causing it ... It gets out emotions and things i don't dare talk about because i feel that people will judge me or that i'd be too much to handle for someone ... Plus i injure myself to punish what i do wrong .. and also when other people pull me down about stuff
how: I used to use sharp objects that are easily findable around the house .. like scissors, staples, safety-pins ... but recently i went out and got razor blades as i felt that scissors and that weren't giving me what i wanted from the harm ... but i still use scissors and staples ect .. as it's harder to cut into the skin with them and it gives me more control ... as with razors u just have to literaly place it on ur skin and press and little and move it alone to make the wound bleed ... It depends on what i'm feeling and how i need to find release depends on what i use to do it ..
pain: not really durning it .. only after
feel: like i'm in conrol .. and usually upset, angry, depressed or just had a fall out or argument with sum1 ... after it i feel guilty and bad that i can't accept and control my feelings in other ways .. and i feel like a let down to everyone ... it depends on how long a session lasts .. depending on what i'm using to self-harm as with razors its over in a few mintues .. but with staples and scissors the session can go on for 10 - 40 mins
drugs: no .. not unless u call smoking part of that catergory .. and i only took that up because i was trying to find other ways to deal with things .. and thought that might help .. but it aint
timestop: when i feel released from whatever was bothering me .. or that i've become to numb with the pain to concentrate on my emotions any longer
stopself: i did .. and it was listening to music .. it still helps at times .. but 80% of the time i doesn't anymore
done with others: no! neva .. i'm too ashamed and embrassed
out: people around me know about me self-harming .. but i feel bad that they do .. its not something they should have to deal with a long with their own lives ... I now only tend to self-harm on the tops of my legs .. as it's easier to hide as i aint exactly got a thin figure so i dnt go swimming nor wear really short skirts Yeah i did know a few old friends .. but i dunno if they still do .. a few people i talk to on the net do it aswell .. thats probably y i talk to them .. coz they are going through the same thing
comeout: i told the I.T tech at my skool because he was online and i kinda mentioned that i didn't have good ways with dealing with things .. etc .. and he asked me questions and i eventually told him .. then 4 weeks after knowing about it he told the libarian and my head of year ... and then they informed my parents .... My parents made me feel even worse .. as they were blaming themselves and kept asking me to talk to them .. but i can't as i've neva had a close relationship with my parents ... then my mum made me promise not to do it again .. and i did promise .. but that made things 10 times harder ... got over the guilt part of breaking the promise as it's continued for 3 months after shes said it ... plus she said she would go mad if she saw any mark or found out that i still did it .. As for the libarian she was probably the only person that i felt that cared and would listen and understand .. as the head of year is an arsehole .. and just cared about my parents finding out .. and the I.T tech couldn't give a shit and told me to sort out my own problems (durning one of the arguments we had)
therapist: no .. but i feel that i can talk to the libarian at my skool but i feel that she might not be able to cope with it ... so i don't bother tryingase it becomes too much for her
consequences: i'm addicted to it and can't find ways to stop
disorders: i think depression as a m8 suggested it and i looked it up .. also from low-self estem
comments: Female, 16, 15, since first starting skool to now .. (yr 11 in secondary skool) i feel that if i eva spoke to anyone about my self-harm that it would have be to sum1 that i'm close to but i dnt wanna become a burden and thats what i feel i'm gunna become .. so i dnt talk to anyone ..
