Chippie - That's so great that you got the sharps out of the room. Very wise of you! And you got online and vented your frustrations safely! Excellent work!!!! It's so hard to stay safe, and it sounds like you did all the right things.

Have you been thinking about trying to get into therapy there? I think you said that the campus therapists don't have a good rep, but sometimes what doesn't work for one person works for another. AND, it would give you some practice talking about your SI. Just talking out loud to someone about it can help you face the reality of the situation.

Please keep staying safe. Emmy
