Is it normal?
I am a 17 year old and I'm new here.
I just wanted to share my recent thoughts that were so terrifying and intense. I feel like failing so the thoughts of sh, about doing something to myself crossed my mind for a minute. Is it normal?
@sensiblePal4594 it should’nt be normal but it’s okay, most of us struggle with it. personally, i self harm often after i get too overwhelmed. i would NOT recommend. you just need to know that it’s not a bad thing, you’re not failing if you think that. it probably sucks but it’ll be fine eventually. try and write your thoughts down or just get them out in any way you feel comfortable to lessen the burden.
Thank you for telling me that. And yeah, it do sucks alot and I don't know if it's going to be fine or not. But I'll try to follow your advice.
@sensiblePal4594 that’s totally fine, i get the feeling. sometimes it helps to cry it out too. or just scream if you can. sending virtual hugsss!🫂🫂🫂🫂🤗🤗🤗
For you too 🫂🫶
I hope that you find somethings else to lessen your pain when your overwhelmed instead of harming yourself cause you deserve gentleness, atleast from your own self
@sensiblePal4594 thankyou, that means more than you know. ❣️❣️
@sensiblePal4594
I’m really glad you spoke up about this. Having those thoughts can be really scary, and you’re not strange for experiencing them, especially when you’re feeling overwhelmed or afraid of failing. You deserve support too, so if those thoughts come back or feel stronger, please tell someone you trust or reach out for help right away. take care pal!
@sensiblePal4594 If I'm being honest its pretty normal for me I feel like this almost every day so your not alone
Thanks, atleast now I know I'm not the only one here with weird thoughts
