Do i need therapy for impulse control disorder…? Can you think of any little tricks like holding an ice cube (!) ? to stop myself.?
I’m stuck, eating too much uncontrollably, at all times, i can’t keep my hands away from my mouth at the moment - i used to smoke 60 a day if that says anything …
when i’m not doing that I’m obsessing about cutting or stealing or sleeping with strangers compulsively or purging the food and my meds which makes me psychotic, or i’m drinking instead or doing drugs till i couldn’t do that any more with the schizophrenia
Wondering if you have any tips for someone who has to be on self destruct, other than therapy… i don’t really want to gamble or get into porn or plastic surgery
i saw on t.v about this impulse control problem and it’s about pain. I think i’m trying to cover up a wish to die, and does that sound like the kind of thing that everyone has (death - wish) or is it specifically dysfunctional - and who isn’t?? or what?
should i just go and get a few sessions or something? It’s very expensive, but so are all my compulsive destructive habits
wish i could drink but gone t total again for a while I have just thought about exercise, but the way i do exercise is thinking unless i’m going to do several hours a day 6 - 7 days a week, I’m skimming the surface of those who can really achieve things with their body, and it’s oh so negative, a little swim twice a week feels like a 90 yr old who has osteoporosis for example kind of achievement.
I compare myself with the Ashtanga teachers or those who could run a marathon tomorrow if they feel like it. It’s not healthy but i guess i have to start somewhere
I need to make a new friend so i’m going swimming with her next week.
