Welcome! I hope you haven't given in! Sorry we were slow in responding....

Are you in therapy? If not, then please get an appointment. If you are, then I suggest you leave a message that you are really struggling.

Has something happened that's leading you to want to self-harm?

Please keep in touch with us. We care and want you to be safe.

I am a burner too but I have not had the urge in a couple of weeks thanks to T#2 and EMDR.

I think i'm just going to give in and burn myself. I feel so sad and I think that's the only thing that will make me feel better.

You don't have to give in to your fears. Why should you do that? Firstly think that'll be consequences. Try to find solutions, don't make things worse for yourself. I don't know a really good advice, but try to get busy so your mind won't analyse so much. I've never been in this situation, but I always listen to music. It is therapeutic. Take care.
