Blood is the only thing that makes sense. When I hurt myself, I know where the pain comes from, why it is there and when it will stop. I control it. Unlike the rest of my life. |
THis is very insightful. You understand exactly why you are SI ing.
I hope you take this list to therapy because these are the things that you will need to work on.
The main themes seem to be stress, frustration, self hate and pain.
Are you getting enough medical help for the pain?
I know with myself that I can decrease my frustration if I change my expectations about it. I can actually tell myself that I'm not going to get frustrated about certain things and it really works for me.
Which course are you taking? (If you don't mind me asking).
