Firstly stop peeling your skin ok.
You might want to talk to your parents and see whether they are willing to negotiate the length of your incarceration.
I’m embarrassed to say that most 13 year old girls have more of a social life than I do these days. Even so, it’s not the end of the world.
I suppose for an adult it’d be like languishing in prison. You get used to it after a while (so I’m told). If you can get through a day, you can do two, 6 months a year.
You could use the time productively by reading, learning new things or maybe just use the time to find a way to deal with your depression. There are no answers out there. You could talk to your parents about it.
tx exit to nowhere ill try cross ur fingers and ill cross mine
I’m doing it now
Firstly im not trying to undercut anything Exit to Nowhere said, it was all great advice. These are very complex and grown up emotions you’re feeling at the moment so ill try talking treating you like it.
Its your body you can do what you want with it god knows most of the people here do but at the end of the day does it actually solve anything. Only you are in your position here, know what your feeling and what really goes on there so you need to work it out for yourself. I personally have never self harmed (if you exclude anorexia) so i wont patronise you and say i understand. I do however do alot of reading on these kind of things and never have i read the title “Man cures depression by cutting hurting himself” I understand its more of a last resort and a temporary release but there are other ways.
What i do know is that its really easy to pretend nothing is wrong and act how you think people expect a happy you to act and then get trapped doing that which makes you sadder and lonelier. I am not as strong as most people here im stuck like that and its not nice. Feeling as though you have no one but too scared to ask for help. Im sure you are alot stronger than that, I believe you are. Talk to someone you trust about it. I dont want to sound patronising but preferably an adult as 13 year old friends are certainly good for advice on most things but theyll have little experience with this kind of thing.
Oh and theres always people out there who will listen if you need to talk. There seems to be plenty here. You can rant and rave all you want and no one will judge.
If you’ve got something on your mind, post it here and we’ll respond. You’re not completely alone.
thanks u help brighten my day im glad i can come here to talk both my parents work so mabey when they get home ill talk to them they can be harsh at times but theyr all i have mabey thell understand if i explane whats going on. i know they think this is good for me and all but a week is good not a few months ill just ceep my fingers crossed. oh and sry about spelling mistakes im dyslexic so its cinda hard to type

Losing a friend is tough and as is being grounded.
