anxiety and self harm
Hi Im feeling very overwhelmed by my anxiety and depression and I dont know what to do if usually self harm but Im trying not to do that I feel awful and like Im going to be sick 🤢. Any advice on how to combat this would be very appreciated. Thank you
@Kiki101 feeling the same way. But you have to just believe youre stronger than this urge and that this wave will pass. Easier said than done but youre already doing the right thing but seeking help here. Hope things get better
@Greenandwhite7 thank you for your advice managed to overcome the urge last night 😄hopefully I am stronger than my self harm urges
@Kiki101 I'm sorry to hear by how overwhelmed you are of your anxiety and depression, I can't imagine what you must be going through. Self harm is a very tempting thing to do when under a lot of stress. One thing you can do is be aware of every time you have the urge to self harm, and note that urge down on a piece of paper. Having this kind of awareness that you want to self harm will allow you to then consider the fact that harming yourself at that moment is not a good idea. By having this sort of authority over your urge, I hope you will then be able to feel better about yourself.
@ChrisHickman22 I will defiantly do that thank you 😊
I'm really sorry to hear about this. It must be a difficult time for you right now. I hope you'll feel better soon
