bus

Thankyou both so much for the replies :1hug: can you describe the feelings that you had? what did you feel physically? Feeling very anxious, shakey, a little dizzy, heart beating a lot faster...my breathing seemed to quicken a lot too. Not sure if that's really what a panic attack is (i dont think i...

These are great, thanks

*begins waiting patiently*

Drawing could definitely work. Good idea

Stay strong

Have you taken care of your physical wounds? if not, go do that now. we'll wait. Yeah, they dont need anything. What had happened just before? I was on BUS, reading a thread. It was such an inspiring thread, so i dont understand why...of all times....i choose to SI at that moment. What were you thi...

... focus... relief. Is there a way of you gaining focus and relief without SIing? Perhaps try really focusing on something...anything, and seeing if that helps at all. Pick an object, and think about it. Its layers, its colors....everything. It might focus you, and perhaps calm the urge a little. ...

numb...and very triggered

Would it be possible to swap rooms with someone else in your household, like your sister? Perhaps if you sat down and talked with your family about the problems your room causes for you they could come up with a solution. If you can't swap maybe redecorating and moving the furniture about could hel...

Thankyou both so much for your replies :redstar: What other non-injurious things can you do to feel? You are here and you are real. But what other ways can you feel that? I suppose i can do things which do make me feel (like the things you suggested). Writing has always been a good way to bring emot...

How will this situation or feeling change if i hurt myself? I wont feel so numb. I'll feel alive finally. I'll feel bad...but i'd rather feel that, than feeling completely dead. I havent SIed in a long time...i've given it up, but had 1 slip since. I dont see the point anymore...i cant see myself l...

I dont think its wrong. People should be free to wear what they want, and show what they want of their body. I dont usually cover my scars. If they are visible, i just come up with a good excuse for them. But....one one hand, i know this is probably a stupid point, but if i were to see someone with ...

Completely numb...i wish i could cry

:redstar: Name: Nat :redstar: Are you currently trying to stop or reduce SI: Yes, stopping :redstar: If so what is your motivation: My mom :redstar: Favorite coping skills: Talking to either my mom or my sister, listening to music, coming on BUS, reading... :redstar: Coping skills that work the leas...

J: Just one more email from you, pretending like the last 3 years never happened...

~ Comments very welcome ~ :star: It kills me when i hear someone laughing. It literally grates on my ears. I find the sound of laughter worse than nails on a chalkboard. *SU* * * * :star: It takes every ounce of strength in me to not run infront of every moving car i see. *SI* * * * :star: I want to...

J-- Why wont you leave me alone? Why must you always come back to hurt me, over...and over? When will it be enough for you? S-- Leave. Me. Alone. You haunt me every single day. Your presence is more than i can handle. You need more from me, dont you? You need to completely squeeze all innocence and ...

:redstar: I wish i truly did want to get better :redstar: I wish i didnt have to pretend :redstar: I wish i didnt need BUS as much as i do :redstar: I wish i could do something right...even just occasionally might be nice *OD* * * * :redstar: I wish i had taken those pills, before they were all take...

...My sister was around, and just talking to her helped me greatly.

I read too. It sounds like a very scary experience Hope things are a bit better now Take care of yourself.
