ive selfharmed for about a year now, with minimal people knowing the cuts are getting alot more deep and my arms are covered in scars ive also burned myself alot, i wear long jumpers most of the time. My parents are never at home, people think i am happy, but that’s one thing im not, my parents want me to do so well in school but i cant focus anymore, i cant concentrate at all, i get around 3/4 hours of sleep most nights because its just impossible for me to sleep and all i do is cry, im really nervous and anxious but i don’t want to tell people because they’ll think im weak, i think about suiside alot, but have never brought myself to atempt but i don’t think I can hold it off much longer everything just seems impossible and i just feel worthless, i know i need help but im just someone who people wouldnt expect it from and it will just seem attention seeking-.- i really don’t know what to do anymore, i hate what i look like and i have everything about myself

I feel exactly the same way. Im not just saying that . Im thinking about telling my dad but im too scared. I honestly dont know what to do either. If you dont mind me asking why do you cut?
Hello helmexo, if I ask anything that you don’t want to answer, then don’t, it’s ok. I’m just trying to better understand so maybe I can offer advice that relates to you and your situation and maybe can help. I dont know you, but I do care. I am just a normal person just like you with my own problems and reasons for being here and like to try to help others when or if I can.
You say you started cutting about a year ago, did something in your life change to being this about? And if there was no life changing event persay, then why did you decide to start cutting at that time?
You say others think your happy but your not. Why are you not happy? Also, if there was something you would change if you could to make yourself more happy, what would it be? You mentioned your parents not being home much just before this. Does that have anything to do with your happiness?
Concentrating in school with little sleep can be tough. Been there myself. What is it that keeps you up and crying, and why are you so nervous and anxious?
I do not think your weak for thinking about suicide. And I would hope nobody else would. But we both know that often times people don’t listen to or react to or even acknowledge other peoples feelings appropriately because they simply don’t understand cause they haven’t been there themselves. And I hope they never have to be.
Things can become overwhelming for anyone and seem impossible very easily when in reality it’s not. It only seems that way. I become overwhelmed often and endure what I feel is impossible for me everyday, and yet….I’m still here. So it is possible. Some how some way, it’s possible and I would be glad to help you find that possible way.
Your certainly not worthless. Nobody is. And do not ever believe it if others tell you so. We all have our strengths and weaknesses, but not you or anyone else is worthless. I promise you that.
Why do you think your someone others wouldn’t expect needing help? I get the feeling your under a lot of pressure to be….perfect….or “better” than those around you. Why is that?
Your being way too hard on yourself. I have things about my appearance that I would like to change and gradually I am. The things about our appearance that we cannot change…..is it cause of what you think other ppl think or say? Everyone is beautiful in their own way. And physical beauty is way over rated. Keep a beautiful mind and and stay beautiful on the inside. That’s where it matters. Not so much what other think they desire by sight. You will see this become more and more true the older you get. Don’t let other ppls ridiculous and unwarranted judgments get you down. That will pass.
Once again, answer what you want and leave the rest. It’s a lot of questions I know, I’m just trying to better understand. I am here if you need someone to talk to. I’ll be watching for your replies. I hope your day is getting better, and keep your chin up. There are people out here that do care.
Love this EvilOni. Good heart. I love when hearts that have suffered reach out to each other. That’s what it’s all about. I’m sorry for what you are feeling helmexo. You are a beautiful soul and don’t be afraid to reach out for help. There are those who care.
