I haven't been on here in a while.

I haven't cut in a while, either. Not sure about the time frame, but at least years. And now theres a knife and a razor in my bathroom that I had my hands on and I don't know what to do. I didn't cut yet. I don't want to cut, but I want to so bad...but I know I'll just feel worse afterwards. Why am I even considering this? What clicks the wrong way that makes me feel like this is an option? I feel so desperate. I don't want to do this. I don't know what to do anymore. I just wanted to write this out somewhere. I just want an out.

((((((((((((((((((((hereiam))))))))))))))))))))) You are very strong to not cut. Do you know what is causing you distress that you feel you have no other way to cope? Can you call a t? Do something to distract you? What coping mechanisms did you use over the last years that helped you through some hard times? If you want there is a sticky at the top of the forum for suggestions of things to do if you feel you need to SI. Maybe those will help?

Know I am here and I care. Please try and stay safe.

thanks, bear.

so far so good. im stressing about school and classes and having (what i believe) to be a typical young adult transition crisis. ive been thinking a lot about doing what i think will make me happy vs. what i know will make other people around me happy. school is a big key in that. going to graduate school is what i always planned on doing, but i realized recently that school does not make me happy. in fact, it may be one of the main sources of my stress and general discontent with myself. i dont mind working hard when its something i enjoy but isnt everyone like that? its just all been coming to a head as of recently. i dont have a t or anything, used to but not for years, and they didnt know about my cutting anyway.

im read the list at the top, im still trying to resist. i think i may be okay. thanks for the help. we'll see how things go i suppose?

yes, it is hard to find out what we as young adults want and to align ourselves with the current tide of people around us. it takes a lot of courage to go against the flow. but if you can find out what it is you truly want, and can go after it, you will be far ahead of your superriors.
good luck.

You do have a choice you know, you can walk away from the sharp objects, take a deep breath and tell yourself that there are options.

You have been doing so well, and everyone has stresses in their lives, so why not tell yourself you will deal with them in a more positive way???

I hope your okay, babyg xXx
