It’s been a long time since I posted in here.

The last few nights I’ve been getting some self destructive thoughts. Last night, was to start skipping meals again

Tonight to start skipping meds again.

And well, it’s all downhill from here really.
Possible trigger:


I’ve been doing so well, and I’m terrified I’m about to throw that all away. But at the same time, I’m not sure I want to stop myself.

There’s part of me that’s telling me I’m way overdue this self punishment and I guess I believe it..

Hello, Whisperingskye. Feel free to ignore the question: Is skipping meals a self-punitive end in itself, or does skipping meals help you skip taking meds?
I send my best wishes for a gentle resolution of the current crisis.

I struggle with stopping meds. I gag on meds, so it’s unpleasant physically and mentally. I can’t stay well without them though.

I'll skip right over any posts about meds... since I am allergic to MANY of them.

I hope things get better for you soon. I often think of you. PM me any time

I wish I could stay ''well'' without having any contact with the ''professionals''.... and as said before.. meds are not an option. I was also called ''the worried well''.... oooh how some of those ''people'' love their labels. And another of them said I was ''not a well person''

Their insults contradict each other



My apologies to those many professionals who care and do an adequate job,

i wish there were more of those in this forest.....

and if only they invent some MAGIC pill that I am not allergic to.....so ''fuzzy bear'' can be ''well''

(sorry about the grr in your thread)

hugs and respect

How are things now friend? (only answer if ok) I'm sending gentle hugs

I think the self punishment thing comes from early trauma, abuse and neglect (I know it does for me ) I think you deserve good things (not punishment

Thank you fuzzy for continually trying to get a response out of me. I guess I posted this and then chose to ignore it.

You know, things have got pretty weird since this post.

I broke up with my girlfriend, never saw that coming. I got covid. Slowly getting over that now. And my head is all over the bloody place. I wish I could say with certainty how I felt, but for now all I know is, I’m here, I’m breathing, and I’m safe. So that’s something I think

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