Hi all. I am new here. In my therapy sessions, I have started talking about the sexual abuse by my older brother. Since then I have had increased nightmares about the abuse. My usual coping methods are to try to bury the pain by overeating but even that doesn't seem to be helping. After my last therapy session, I started having these weird thoughts about cutting myself. i pictured myself going into the kitchen, getting a steak knife and and making a cut on my wrist, just to feel the sting and see the blood run. I have never done that OR even thought about it. These thoughts lasted about 2 days and have been gone for a week now. Any thoughts?
