What would you never say to mental health staff that you have said here? I just answered another post and mentioned something i think about, but never did.

Because of my facial deformity, i have actually thought of doing my own surgery. I have medical back ground in vet offices and know a lot about surgery and suturing. I ve done alot of suturing. I keep thinking about it, such as what about just the non-tricky areas that requires mimial skill. It would be good practice. lol

I would never say this to them olol :laughing:

Please dont type in anything you dont feel comfortable saying. I am just wondering if other people do this.

I would never begin with “…this is why I haven’t been taking my meds…”, or something along those lines.

Probably anything because they seem to interrupt me a lot. They just want to go by the label (schizoaffective) I think.

There are things I don’t want to say but I have impulsivity issues so I just say stuff I don’t mean to. I have kept secrets though due to not remembering anything and them not being careful enough to ask.

Thats exactly what i mean.

i guess i am wondering, does do any harm??? or is an innocent thing???
I feel like it would be a TMI for myself. It would make it too difficult to go back again.

The same for you or not?

would this thing, for me, classify as “thoughts of self harm”?

i really dont know in my odd ball life anymore. but i think it would? not that i have made any serious plans, only thought about it.

It can do harm depending on what it is. But I think that would also be considered innocent in a way.

I talk a lot more about my alters on here than I do to my therapist. I just feel so weird bringing it up to her.

I won’t tell a therapist how desperately I want to go home (be with God) because they’ll forget the fact that I’ve felt this way since my mid-teens which should take the sense of urgency out of it. And I won’t share my disdain for humanity and how overpopulation is at the root of many societal problems because it might be misinterpreted as a search for a solution, which it isn’t at all.

I won’t tell my therapist or psychiatrist how I heard voices calling me a pedophile and disgusting, it’s not something I feel I should bring up because it disturbs me.

I thought I would never discuss the loss of libido I have experienced on Abilify but I already did :I Very awkward and embarassing.

really? I didnt know that (not just you) .

I mean, if you wont say it, there are probably thousands more who wont either.

I was under the impression a large part of the mental health field is for drug treatment. I would think it would be common.

I learn something new everyday.

i could understand that. and would like to add hallucinations often seem to say things to bring a person down.
