TRIGGER WARNING ****** Graphic
I have had a good day today ...join here , went to my psych appointment , then went food shopping with my husband ...but suddenly want to self injure ...i have Gender Identity Disorder i feel that am in the wrong body i want to be male but i was born female. it makes me want to hurt myself badly like cut off my breasts most of the time and am feeling like that just now my body is alien to me Normally when i feel this way i end up cutting some times on my breasts I cant stop thinking about cutting there and i am trying to distract myself from doing it but so far nothing has helped I need to have dinner soon and that makes me want to cut as well because i have an eating disorder as well . Alexx

You are not alone. I am sorry you also feel like you are in the wrong body. It can STINK to be on the outside who you are not on the inside. I also cut on my breast and totally get you.

I'm sorry you're feeling so bad. I have felt deep hatred for the body I am in, but I have never wanted to be the other gender. I can only imagine how painful that is. Can you talk to your husband about how you feel?

yes i have talked to my husband about this ...he is really supportive and understanding ...my husband also self injures but hasn't for a long time.
We talked about it for a little while and we came up with ideas to keep me busy Also we kinda made a pact not to self injure for a day then carry it on to the next day and the next day after that and so on not self injuring a day at a time still feeling the same though trying not to cut at all

I am so glad your husband is supportive. That has to feel good, doesn't it? It's very smart to just take things one day at a time. I hope the way you feel will start improving very soon.

I know what it is like to hate my body but I do not have what you have.
When you feel like self injuring, distract yourself. This has worked for me, so far. If I feel like cutting, I pick up my guitar and start playing, take a walk, read, talk to my friends, and so on. It seems, though, that you and your husband have a good idea of what to do. Take one day at a time. That is really all you can do.
