I'm going to make this short and simple--I'm scared! I'm scared of my environment. My dad's threatening to send me to a psych hospital, because he saw the 100+ new cuts on my thigh. No one else is home with me right now, and I can't go anywhere, so I'm deathly scared right now. My phone's been taken away, so I can't call anyone for help. I don't want to have to go to the psych hospital again!!!

What did you tell your dad when he threatened to send you away?

I couldn't say anything. I was crying too hard at that point.

I know how you feel. one time my parents found out I had been cutting worse than usual and they took away my phone and my music and everything comforting and threatened to send me to the hospital and I was so scared and even more angry and I didn't know how to cope. I ended up wrapped in a soft blanket with a stuffed animal crying. sometimes crying is helpful, and soft comforting things. if you have music try that. if you feel like self harming, distract yourself. write on yourself with a red pen if you need to. it helps.

He took away my radio, my security blanket, my blades (of course), and anything that he deemed could be used as self-harm. He views writing on the body as a way to self-harm, because he thinks that the ink gets into the bloodstream and infects the blood. Not like I believe him, but...yea, I have NO comfort objects whatsoever. And if he hears me cry, he's going to yell at me to stop.

I know exactly how that is. almost exact thing happened to me. It was really, really hard and I slept a lot and stayed in bed when I could. meditating might help, or praying if you believe in that. you can sing to yourself, something by 1d lol. it wont last forever, you just have to get through it.

Ok thanks. I'm thinking towards Little Things, but maybe even What Makes You Beautiful would work for the time being.
