I want to cut so bad. I can't stand the pain. i can feel it inside up to my throat needing to come out. I just want to cut and let it out. I can't sit still, something needs to give.

Monty:

You can stand the pain. You don't have to do this. It's hard, I know from personal experience, but I have held out so long, I can't even count. I know it's a difficult situation to be in. Is there any coping techniques that you can try and that are safe for you? Just take it a minute at a time if you have to.

You can do this.
Take care and stay safe,
Kimberly.

Do what you need to do to keep yourself safe. My best wishes and thoughts are with you right now.

Take care of you,
Kimberly.

when im like that. I like to go into nature.. just watch birds, flowers, soothing sounds of the lake. I hope you find some peace!

TY (((((((((((((((((( Kimberly )))))))))))))))) When I get in this kind of state it's so hard to think. I don't really know any kinds of coping skills. The only one I know is to put it off as long as I can and maybe I won't cut. Thank you for caring. Monty

That is what I like to do as well. But it always seems to hit me when I'm unable to get away and find peace. My T has thought me how to go inside my head and go to my safe place that we have made. ( It's a flower shop) But sometimes it's hard for me to calm down enough to relax enough to do this. Guess I need to go there more often so I don't get so worked up to where I can't relax myself. Thanks Monty

I can feel your pain...........quite literally.

Wanna hear some old sage advice??? Use a red marker and pretend it is a blade...it works! (just don't use a permanent marker)Yell, scream, whatever when you make a "cut" Get it out of your system! Follow w/ a good cry!
Repeat as necessary........



Penny for your thoughts.......hugs by the ton!!!

((((((((((((((((((((((((( DayZee ))))))))))))))))))))))))))) TY, I try using pens when I can. And sometimes rubber bands and ice. Think the ice helps tons. I no a lot of times I use ice to help from switching as well. I get hot and I can't stand being hot and I switch. It's one of those things with the waves of emotion you get and can't stand. I know the longer I put off hurting myself the less likely I'm am to do anything. I also have a no harm contract with my T. Which helps tons. I have a list of support #'s on it I can call to help me out when it gets to bad. But sometimes I can't physically speak during these times. Ya know how hard it is to cry sometimes. I always think I have to be strong and not let those around me know I'm having a hard time. I Need to learn how to get it out.
