Im new here, and Im not sure what I'm expecting, all I know is that I am a cutter who recently started up again, and tonight I am feeling extremely suicidal. Part of me told me to come on the computer and try to find someone, anyone to talk to. I am trying to stick with that part, but the feeling of worthlessness is just getting too strong, it's too much to bear. I just need someone to talk to, anyone?

Hi abs, welcome to the forums! If you ever need someone asap try the chat room, it's more immediate than the forums, but the replies in the forums DO come, just have to wait a little while.
I'm sorry to hear you're feeling so bad! Try to distract yourself from the cutting, find something else to focus on if you can.
There's a self harm section on these forums, which might help you, but also... not sure if it would trigger you ? So... that's up to you whether you think you could go in there and talk to others there.

So... do you have any plans for the day? Something to take your mind off everything? I'm stuck indoors on my own, I had a little stressy fit and ended up not going out with my family.

Hope you are staying safe. let us know if you can x

If you feel you can't control harming yourself maybe you should call a crisis line. Also, I've heard of treatments for Self Injury that include holding an ice cube in your hand instead of cutting.

I've called a crisis line before, it's not that bad.

Hi abs, and welcome to PC!

I'm sorry to hear you are feeling this way. Is there somebody you can talk to? A family member, a friend, a doctor? Like Sophia said, a crisis line is also a good option. We are here to listen as well. Hospitalization is also an option if you feel you can't control these suicidal urges.

If you ever want to chat privately, feel free to pm me.

attentionThis is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.
