I know I've only been a member at Psych Central for a few days, but having everyone tell me they had regret they didn't get help sooner I think really hit home for me...
I really think I've been in denial for too long. I went a little overboard on the SI for the past few days just so I could actually physically feel and see the blood. When I needed to see it today, in the middle of class, and had to suffice by digging my nails into my palm...I think it made me realize I do need help. I've tried too long to get over it on my own.
I think I'm going to try to visit the campus psychological center tomorrow afternoon.
Should I include the self-injury on my general information form? I'm scared they'll try to send me "away."
How were you guys treated in your counseling sessions when you mentioned self-injury?
ANY advice would be appreciated. I'm getting nervous just thinking about the visit tomorrow. Please, send me a PM, a reply, whatever. I need reassurance that this isn't going to be a mistake.
