Hi there @
sinking👋👋
Please, it's such a difficult life these lives we've been given, and you're absolutely right: cutting yourself is not the answer, is NOT a good idea at all. Yes, you get thoughts and urges, I understand, but you have to distract yourself, change your focus, and just endure the feelings you're having. As a recovering alcoholic, I have cravings and urges to send myself into oblivion for a couple of days on a fairly regular basis, but I know from my long experience that drinking, just like cutting, is not at all a good idea. And why punish yourself further still, for a short term relief that will be over before you know it? I tell myself I need to be smarter than that.
I do hope you're managing okay today sinking, and I hope you still have your health. Physical health, mental health, is very very important.😔
Sending peaceful thoughts your way today.🙏
