I need help.. I don’t want to live anymore, but I don’t want to die… I just want to dissapear off the face of the earth, I just want the pain to stop. My heart feels like it’s going to explode… Maybe I should start cutting again…
There must be a reason that you stopped cutting so that should be your reason not to start again. I am sorry that you’re feeling that bad. Sometimes it works for me to sit very still and observe the horror show that is going on in my mind and body. Just observe it and lean in to it. Sometimes I name the feelings like ”terror” ”fear” ”anxiety” ”shame” ”hate” and just sit there letting it happen like it is the most horrific rollercoaster ever invented and I am strapped in. I do this because there is no point in reacting to it because none of the reactive behaviours do anything useful.
I hope you don’t start cutting again. I understand what you’re going through. And I can assure you cutting won’t change what you are feeling. Sometimes I have urges too but I manage to distract myself. My coping skills aren’t good or healthy so I’m not the best person to give you advise (I will give anyway).
I think you should try what results best for you. Let out your emotions without hurting yourself. Try doing something creative, go for a walk or a run, write or talk to someone about your feelings.
We are here for you.
