• The General Mental Health Forum is now a Read Only Forum. As we had two large areas making it difficult for many to find, we decided to combine the Mental Health & the Recovery sections of the forum into Mental Health & Recovery as a whole. Physical Health still remains as it's own area within the entire Recovery area.

    If you are having struggles, need support in a particular area that you aren't finding a specific recovery area forum, you may find the General Struggles forum a great place to post. Any any that is related to emotions, self-esteem, insomnia, anger, relationship dynamics due to mental health and recovery and other issues that don't fit better in another forum would be examples of topics that might go there.

    If you have spiritual issues related to a mental health and recovery issue, please use the Recovery Related Spiritual Advice forum. This forum is designed to be like Christian Advice, only for recovery type of issues. Recovery being like a family in many ways, allows us to support one another together. May you be blessed today and each day.

I feel like i have a lot of pent up frustration and hurt and just a lot of bad stuff and i really feel like cutting. the last cuts i did have stopped hurting so i feel like i need to do it more. please pray i wont because i will hurt the only person who has ever really loved me and i promised that i wouldn't cut anymore.

i know how that can be. I promised someone close to me as well..and i know how hard it is to try and not give in, especially with a promise on the line.
I will pray that you don't fall to the urge.

:hug:**many hugs**:hug:

*HUGE HUGS* I know what you mean... im feeling triggered by absolutely everything at the moment... and i was doing so well... i dont know wat happened

i know how that is...sometimes things just get so overbearing. sometimes we do so well, that we just feel something will go wrong sooner or later(thats how i get at times).
I hope those triggers are less constant..I know how hard they are to deal with. I hope God lessens these triggered feelings.

I feel really triggered after visiting this forum...i guess it just makes me think about si'ing...but i can't give in...i just can't...or i'll hurt the only "mother" who ever loved me....i can't upset her again...i just can't.

im sorry you feel triggered when you come here. Fight for not only your "mother" but yourself!
I have faith in you..I will be praying for you! :hug:

Thanks!...don't get me wrong...this forum helps me heaps...but reading other peoples posts make me think more about si'ing when i'm already in a bad state...but i think the benefits outweigh that!

I am new. :wave:
I cut and it is getting worse... I try to resist but it is very hard...
I want to cut now but I am trying to distract myself... this is why I signed up on this website... for support and encouragement... I need to share my secrets and my stress...
:(

hi, nice to meet you. :wave:
I am glad you found this site and signed up.
Thats great how you are distracting yourself from hurting yourself. Thats a great thing to do. Feel free to open up to us at anytime! We are always here!!
I will pray that the cutting will subside. And remember, on your fight to not cut, if you accidentally do, dont be upset. We all fall to the temptation sometimes. Just get right back up and keep trying!

:hug:

Thankyou so much for your welcome.
The temptation has passed but I find that recently it has become more often and much stronger when I do get tempted.
It upsets me because I like to have control over my thoughts but it feels like it's slipping away. :sigh:
