Sort of graphic. Obvious trigger warning.

Didn't even try fighting it this time. I felt the urge coming on, the urge to rip off one's own skin. I was looking forward to it, continuing about my usual business. It made me bizarrely happy. In my mind I could see myself smiling twistedly as I raked my skin as hard as I could with a fork. It didn't do that much, I never do. The red marks and skin indents fade in a matter of minutes. For a brief minute fear flashes as I go for round two....made a shape of little house on my leg with stab indents. Do I want a round 3, I told myself "no" but while contemplating it I muttered "possibly" while running the fork down the inside of my arm. and in the process of contemplating I ended up hurting myself even more, because after that moment I proceeded to slap a little rhythm on my forearm, it wasn't until seconds later that I noticed the bright pink line from where seconds earlier, and pid red spots from my slapping. The anxiety didn't stop me until I turned all the little red spots into one big one, but it stopped from a round 4. Anxiety certainly is a killjoy.

Different font for different part.

Please try to keep yourself safe. I know it makes you happy "in the moment" but usually you can wind up feeling worse afterwards...

times for me are tough right now
Tougher then they've been in a good, long while...
I've made some posts of course, but not many people respond anymore.
It makes me mad
REALLY mad
(as in break something mad)
and it comes to me that I'm only mad because the sole reason I even bother posting my issues is because I want attention. Support, advice, etc. Though I fear the dreaded "shut the hell up." that I never get. It's not fair for anyone here. I'm disgusted by myself. If the only reason why I'm doing these things is for attention then I don't even deserve the attention that I do get. (in my world at least, where judgmental rules like this usually only apply to me) the madness needed to go somewhere so instead of taking it out of everyone here I decided to take it out of myself.

((((((((((((((((((((((((Kaika)))))))))))))))))))) I am sorry you are in so much pain right now. Sometimes many of the people in the forum hurt at the same time and have a hard time supporting others. Please try and understand it is not you. I am sorry that you turned anger on yourself. I know it is a difficult emotion but can you work through it with someone? I hope you are feeling better now.
