i don't know if this would help but i will try

Post by collide » Wed Aug 10, 2005 2:47 am

i am...a horrible person, horrid creature, full of defilment and repulsivness

i am not...worthy to live, and yet ironically i am alive though i tried to kill myself in some very dangerous ways and never really got harmed

i feel...like cutting, or wish death would take my hand

i want...to feel numb, to dissociate to a place of nothingness

i need...answers to why that hospital thinks i am "untreatable"

i have...too much mood swings lately, and depressive feelings

i love...my bf and i know he would be so sad if he knew how badly i am feeling

i hate...myself, my past, ppl that who i've trusted that decieved me, esp those mental health ppl who are supposed to help, hospitals and such...

Self injury is an expression of acute psychological distress. It is an act done to oneself,with the intention of helping oneself rather than killing oneself.
Paradoxically,damage is done to the body to preserve the integrity of the mind.
