I'm sorry that you felt like a failure for not going to school anymore. How long have you been out of school? Did school get too difficult with everything going on? You know, it is sometimes hard to deal with what we have on our plate. I'm sure that you are doing the best that you can. I wish that you didn't see yourself as a failure.

Can you have a plan next time that you are feeling like you are in a trance so that you don't get lost in what you are doing if you SI? Some plan like talking to your parents or calling one of your therapists?

Are you making progress in therapy? If you don't mind me asking, what are you working on in therapy?

I'm glad that you are leaving the stitches in this time.

Please continue to post to let us know how you are doing?
