This is where you wish that you were ^.
Where you are -
You have urges to SI
You have negativeness that has happened to you
You cannot look in a mirror and say "I love you"
I know, if you accept these things you will probably fear that you will fall into a pit of despair and won't be able to get back out. This is a very realistic fear and I don't blame you for one minute fearing it. So it leaves you stuck between a rock and a hard place, yes.
What helps to face these things? Making positive things in your life to fall back on.
Do you have people you can depend on and count on? Work on getting more of those.
Focus on what is real and tie your life more into those things. What is real? Interacting with the environment. Doing crafts, or yardwork or housework. When you interact with what is real around you it gets you out of your head and ties you to what is real. These things that you touch and manipulate are real. Just getting out in nature is very healing. Feel the wind, feel the sun, look at those birds, look at the buds on the trees. This stuff is the real stuff.
Making relationships with HEALTHY people. This is real. This gets you out of your head and gives you something positive to fall back on during your journey of healing.......
