Hi lee- it's morning for me now soo I tthought I would come back and post more constructively if that's okay with you. My first question would be- why do you feel that you deserve more pain? This is a really difficult issue for a lot of us, so don't feel that you have to answer it, but it might be s...

Hello Lee. It's quite late for me and I'm just off to bed, but I wanted you to know that I've read. If it's alright with you I'll come back and post a proper reply tomorrow when I am more coherent.

I hope you are okay. Take good care of yourself.

Hello Stellaria. I hope you don't mind me adding in here a bit late. I just wanted to say that I recognise a lot of what you say about indifference and not really caring, and for me the feelings of emptiness which I accossiate with indifference are some of the most difficult to deal with. If I'm dep...

Hi Stevie. I hope it's okay for me to reply. I'm sorry you ended up hurting yourself. I'm assuming that your before and after posts are part of the same incident? Please correct me if that's wrong. It sounds like you had a tough day. I know that certainly for me the absolute biggest trigger is famil...

Hi there. I hope you don't mind me replying to this post. To me it sounds like you are thinking in a really good way about how to prevent yourself from SI-ing and maybe make thigs a bit easier. It might not feel that way to you, but that's the way it seems to me and I just wanted to let you know tha...

Detective Inspector Alex!

Hi. It sounds like you're in quite a tough spot at the moment, Stevie. I'm sorry for that and wish there was soomething I could say that would deffinately make it easier- I don't think there is, but I will say a few things that come to mind. First, it sounds to me like you are being really quite har...

Hi. I'm glad some of what I said can be of use to you. The group thing sounds very difficult. I am also in a DBT group and have been for a year or so now- it's a condition of my treatment that I attend, which sucks. I sympathise with it often not working, and with it causing dissociation, which I ha...

Hi. I hope it's okay for me to reply here. I'm sorry things are tough at the moment. It seems to me like you've been thinking really hard about why you are urgey and whatt to do about that, though, which is a good thing- could you give yourself some credit for that? Also, you say that you had felt t...

Hi Odette. I'm glad that this place can be of some use to you. The questions are hard, but they can, I think, help make sense out of things. please remember that there is no time limit as to when you post here- it can be as long after an urge or incident as you want- sometimes it might even be bette...

Hey. I am sorry you are in such a bad place. It sounds like things are very tough for you at the moment, and you have my sympathy with that. I hope it's okay for me to reply here. I can sympathise with having SI stuck in your head. That's a very difficult place to be in, because it does seem to take...

Like magic. Like sunshine. Like glass. Like teh ubermensh. Glowing. Perfect. On fire. Made of joy. Made of love. Made of happiness. Made of movement. Needless. Heedless. Happiness.

Like I need to find a way to come the fuck down

Hi Emma. I'm sorry about the delay in replying. I hope iit's okay for me to do so now. I'd been feeling apathetic and slightly suicidal for a few days. I found this really distressing, since I've always before been very clear about how many things I have to look forward to. that sounds like a really...

Hi. I hope it's okay for me to reply here. I know I will feel heaps calmer. is there anything else you could do to calm yourself down? What sort of calm aare you looking for? Is it your body or your mind which is overactive? Perhaps if you broke this down a bit you might be able to see how to addres...

Hi. I hope it's okay for me to reply here. I sympathise a lot with what you have said, and a lot of it seems very familiar- particularly what you have said about people not knowing how bad things are unless you huurt yourself. I know that for a very long time I was worried that if I stopped hurting ...

I don't know if you even like me any more. And now you aren't calling and neither am I. Suddenly I'm too tired to bother anymore.

I wish I was strong enough to not need anyone.

I am sad because I still find it so hard to relate to people, to make and keep friends- and because in my head I think I am not good enough, pretty enough or clever enough for anyone to love me. I am happy because things are gtting better, because I have a future now and I am working on making somet...

Hi, Kurdt. It sounds like you're in a really horrible place right now, and I'm sorry for that. I don't kknow if anything I can say will be very helpful, but there are a few things which came to mind. It seemed from your post and the way that you wrote that you're going very fast, and that your thoug...

Hi. I hoope you don't mind me replying, and I'm sorry I haven't done so sooner. Have you been and had a read through everything the coping board? You keep saying that you need more coping mechanisms. and that seems to be like the best place to start. I think also you should be a little easy on yours...

like I can't cope anymore.
lonely.
like I'm going backwards again.
