I have been craving he feeling and sensatin from self harming. i feel like it would fix me. i havnt done it in 3.5 years and i know its unhealthy but even klonopin isnt helping this feeling inside me. but whats stopping me is im on blood thinners. i dont know how dangerous it would be to self cut on blood thinners so its stopping me. but today was my last dose of those. what will stop me tomorrow?

If it helps the blood thinner will be in your body for a while so you can keep using it to keep yourself safe.

I would see my PCP about an enlarged heart. He may refer you to a cardiologist but I think that is the place to start.

I hope the new med kicks in soon and you feel better.

Good luck with your paper!

You could still call and tell them you're struggling but not tell them you PLAN on hurting yourself but have urges and they won't call the cops. Really emphasize that you won't do it and do your best to come up with alternative coping skills with them.

I had t stop the trintelllix because i was throwing up from the nausea it caused. satan is full in attack mode for me. my fiance was gonna go to church with me today and he ruined that. long story. i got a c in my class even though i tried really hard on every assignment whihc means i cant start my practicum in january now. how embarassing. i feel like just quitting everything and holing up in my room away from everyone and all their expectations of me. i feel like giving up my near four years of being self harm free and giving in. i try so hard NOT to do it. why does it even matter?ive been crying all evening. i wish i didnt have to hide my messy breakdown. i cant even just be depressed. i wont see my pdoc again until august. hes now part time and that was his soonest though i am on cancellation list. who knows. i mesaged them about having to stop the trintellix. asked for something-anything else. didnt tell them details. too afraid to. i see my t again tuesday but i feel like cancelling.

Tell him you don't need IP but xyz. I think providers are to fast with IP. I hope you can find the words to tell him what needs to be said without IP.

That really sucks, Hallie

My pdoc is also part time. Only works Wednesdays. It's very frustrating. I dread the day he actually retires completely!

Maybe you'll like your new pdoc. He could be very good.

It sucks trintillex didn't work out for you.

Hopefully the next antidepressant they put you on will do wonders!

This will pass. Pray stay in school! It is a phase. Just recently you posted such confident, self-assured messages. Maybe look for them on this forum as proof that you will get better?
