Poor morning again, had another self harm episode... So annoying, must be a combination of being tired, disorientated to where i am and rush of anger/anxiety.
Won't go too much into it.. Just annoying and leaves me feeling sad.
Wife got in touch with one of my long term and from child hood friends who has since text and called me being very supportive. Hadn't told any of my friends to this point so a bit of a big deal that I was worried about... But yeah he took it well and is coming to visit me this weekend which was so nice.
One of the care workers on my unit has befriended me as well and imparted a very poignant phrase that I think I'll carry with me for a long time. That though right now I may be scared, worried and concerned about the future 'this is not the end, it's just a bend'
The perspective of that struck a cord and I'm really thankful.
