I haven't self injured in seven months, but I started up again. It's a problem that I've been working on getting control again of. But just now, I keep getting these thoughts of just ending it. And I know for certain that I don't want to die and that I would regret it. But right now it seems as if a way to get out of this nightmare that is my reality. This is really scaring me, because normally I can just push those thoughts out, but right now I can't.
I realize that I'm rambling and I know that I won't commit suicide, but does anybody know of ways to get those thoughts out of your head when they start plaguing you? |

Distractions. That's the only thing that will help until they pass.
Play a computer game, bake a cake, take your dog for a walk, just do anything to try and take your mind off stuff.

Can you call your T?
Have you been working on triggering stuff in therapy?

I have, but I'm still not exactly sure what my triggers are. It always feels like a surprise. I'm sure there are signs, but I haven't been able to figure them out. |

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