--you don'g *have* to. self-harm is a choice. even when it feels otherwise.

have you checked the list of ways to cope?

what sorts of situations/emotions most often are problematic for you?

what sorts of things do you think might help when you're feeling sad? what sorts of stuff seems to help those around you when they feel sad?

did you exercise?

good luck

how can you get back into a habit of meditating?

Curl up and die, but I'm too scared --that doesn't sound very self-protective to me :tongue: what sorts of coping methods are you working at putting into place? one thing that imo people tend to not realize or forget... is that it's a lot easier to remember coping methods when they're things you pra...

Temperature changes, intense exercise & progressive relaxation. take a hot shower. fill a bucket with ice water & then hold your face (with water covering your temples) in it for 30 seconds. try running (even just running in place). check your library for progressi...

I'll be able to distract myself from feeling so lonely and betrayed --what else could you do to distract? That's what I need the most right now.

Really, Really STUPID --not the brightest thing to do... no...

i'll feel like i've done something about the way i feel. --it would be a "something".... often there's far more than one "something" to be done about a situation. it'll take away the fact that i haven't si'd in 7 months. --what sorts of things have you done in those 7 months to deal with emotions? p...
