havent cut in several weeks, im actually kind of proud of myself i guess. i keep having thoughts of becoming crazy and then everyone around me forces me to a mental hospital. no one can hear me because im just the crazy girl that says stupid things and cant understand any real world objects. this is why im afraid to be myself, to even talk or speak my mind.

First thing’s first, I am proud of you for not cutting yourself! You’re doing great! <3
Secondly, having these thoughts is normal. What isn't normal is if they start interfering with your life, work and other things. What helps is calming down and thinking rationally. What are you afraid you could say that would make them put you in a hospital? Think it all through and then think, "WHY would they put me in a hospital?" After that consider what's the percentage of them indeed going through with that in real life. Subtract the fact that usually people don't want to get involved in other people's shit.
What's the real percentage?
If it's higher than 50, tell yourself this, "Is this thing I want to say relevant to the topic and will it help someone?" If you answer no to those, then there's no need to say those things anyway. If it's yes, then don't be afraid.
If the percentage is lower than 50, you still need to answer the questions of whether this thing I want to say is relevant to the topic or will it help someone if I say this. You can be a bit more lenient with this one.
There you go! 😀
aw thank you very much 🙂 that actually does help a little. i never thought about it like that. its just, these thoughts are eating me alive and i cant stop thinking about it just like that, and well i dont know. its just confusing.
You’re welcome, dearie 🙂 Just take one step at a time. Don’t rush your thoughts. Think things through.
