@Zale

Hi Sounds like you are having a really tough time at the moment.

Have you felt like this for a while or are these new feelings?

Take care

@calmPaul281 it's been months. I deal with it 6 days a week minimum

@Zale

That sounds like a lot to deal with.

You say the best ways to distract yourself are cutting and burning, in the past have you tried other ways to distract yourself that have worked?

take care
paul
