I just had an encounter with a person that I was trying to cut out of my life because every interaction I have with him is triggering to me. It was very emotional and upsetting - found out for certain that he has been hiding certain things from me and also found out that he knew about some things I thought I was hiding from him. I feel like such a worthless moron and the only thing I want to do right now is hurt myself as punishment for being so stupid.

I know I need to ride this out and do healthy things but my reserves were low to begin with and this encounter has them pretty close to empty. If I cut, I let myself down but if I don't and spin completely out of control, I let myself down too. No easy answers...not even medium ones...just hard choices always. And I'm so tired and don't know if I have the strength to hold it together anymore without some form of release.

I'm sorry you're going through this! If I had some magic words to help you through this, I certainly would use them on you and myself. I'm going through something similar myself! All I can say is hang in there, hopefully it will get better soon for the both of us!

Both of you, hang on. It will be worth it tomorrow and you will be glad you held on. You are both strong enough to overcome. I have faith. I've been where you are.
Good luck,
Gayle

Im sorry to hear that you're suffering, please dont hurt yourself, you dont need to punish yourself, no matter what. Do something to distract yourself, take a warm bath or such before you do aynthing. i know how it is to have people being triggers, bringing up old memories and just making you feel horrible, angry, guilty and such, yep. But not worth cutting or hurting yourself. hugs
