I feel devasted TW self harm

Treatment is a very hit and miss tbh it’s more of a miss. Do you have a pdoc and T and support system?

Whats a T support system? Sorry, english is not my 1st language and I’m from Portugal.

I’m sorry. T is short for therapist and the support system is seperate. By the way your English is very good. :slight_smile:

I have been feeling a strong tendency toward self harm recently after withdrawing from my medication very recently. I really don’t know if I can trust myself, I hate blood so I would never do anything “partial”, but I also hate pain so I could never commit suicide. But I feel an intense unexplainable grief and hopelessness.

It’s ok to relapse. It sometimes helps to look for alternative ways. Like snapping a rubber band on yourself or squeezing an ice cube. I wish you recovery!

I had a brief period of doing cutting on my arms and cigarette burns. I have a word carved on my left forearm that I particularly regret.
I never did these things till after I started hearing voices. I did it without much thought. I’m glad I stopped, don’t know why this problem went away when it did.
I was diagnosed borderline personality disorder at one point too. Not sure if that stuck though.
It’s good you recognize this as a problem and got help. I hope you can find the means to stop and start feeling better @niales1989.k
