• 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.

Hi. So the title says it. After 7 year with no self injury I've relapsed. Life's been tough recently and I'm not coping very well. Not really sure what to do from here or how to pick myself up again. I don't feel bad about the relapse, just rather numb and blank, though I'm having moments of panic that the last 7 years have vanished. I'm completly burnt out from life and ministry and I feel like I'm back where I started and a failure and like my future plans have just fallen away.

Anyone been through anything like this before?

Hi Jessica.Rose,

I've relapsed too after several years of no self injury. This was about a couple months ago. At the moment I too feel like my life is falling apart. I have some other mental problems as well, at the moment I'm trying hard to not self injure. Just wanted to let you know that you are not alone. Are you in therapy?
