It’s been years since I posted. My first post was when I was a sophomore in high school I think. I’m finishing up my second year in college now.
I guess being suicidal and severely depressed never goes away even when things change. I was a year clean from self harm. It’s all starting again.

Hey, I know how you feel, I used to self harm, and have been (pretty much) clean for around 2 years and a couple months. Lately i have been feeling the urge because of negative feelings, much like you seem to be having.
All I am going to say is stay strong, remember that temporary relief leaves permanent damage. Try holding ice in your hand tight, it hurts but leaves no damage, and I still get a little relief from that. Obviously it’s not recommended, but its better than the alternative!
Keep going, everybody has relapses and setbacks, remember why you stopped in the first place and try again, you can do it!
I’ve only been on here for a little bit but I’m sorry to see that things haven’t gotten better for you.. I hope being back on here benefits you somehow this time.
I hope so too and the same for you
I’m very sorry to hear about your relapse. It’s easy to get disheartened when that happens, but a relapse isn’t always a death sentence. They’re bound to happen on the road to recovery. And it doesn’t mean that you can’t kick the habit back down again.
Yeah I know. I’m just tired of me thinking it’s okay to go back to self harm. I just want to be over it already.
