I am going through an episode of overwhelming anxiety right now. I just cut a whole bunch of times and it was so weird, I didn't feel a thing. I didn't even help. I don't wanna tell my husband, I can't call T, maybe I will go call my friend, he is someone I can talk to about this, but I feel so stupid and ashamed. I'm scared. All I want to do is go back to the razor blade and keep going until I feel something. It was like I was in a daze, it was so surreal, I couldn't feel anything. I feel the afterwards sting now, but that's it.

I was lying in bed listening to some classical music that T gave me, but the impulsive wouldn't go away, so I got out of bed and did it again to the other leg. Same thing happened-- didn't feel anything. I realized that the impulse probably isn't going to pass and if I don't do something else I'll just end up cutting all day. I was honest with my husband and told him what is going on and he said he would help me in any way that I need him to. I think I'm just going to try to write like T told me to on the phone yesterday.... This is so %#@&#! hard.

when i cut i don't feel anything... it puts me in that numb place... writing in your journal is a good idea... sometimes i open a new document and just type the same words over and over until i fill the page or the urges subside... if when i have filled the page they are still there i reduce the size of the font and continue... stay safe...lyn

Pink - take yourself out to ice cream or something - something you can use your senses on - taste, feel the cold. chocolate ice cream-get the endorphines....
