I want to (tw: self-harm)

I want to self harm really bad. Everything in my head is screaming on the top of their lungs.

I just want to do it because I feel like it will help me.

How do I stop these intrusive thoughts?

I would say ignore them, let these thoughts pass without acting towards it. Maybe sit down and focus on your breath.

Engage in some activity and keep yourself busy. So no time to listen to such thoughts.

I’m trying. I’m so tired of life and I just have to pretend that I am ok.

Did you research children’s illustrator jobs?

yea like the others said, occupy your mind with other things and try to let those thoughts pass.
