TRIGGER WARNING
Hi there,
I used to feel bad too and then one day I drew a heart on my wrist and on my prison cell window. I stopped SH, and stopped punching my steel window closed! I realized what I was missing was the coping tools to be able to deal with life. I didn't have the basics figured out fully and had bad examples my whole life. Now I see things differently and have been working on my mental health for about a bit more than 5 years. I have a whole toolbox full of my new coping skills and have learned to control my emotions instead of letting them control me. Draw a heart and let it remind you how much you really care about yourself. You showed you care by reaching out on 7Cups and were very brave, so give yourself a high five!~ Tag me anytime, I am a former cutter who is happy and recovered because I sought out treatment and I put in the efforts. You can figure it out quickly now with the help of all the kind people on 7Cups! You've got this!!~
Blessings, Day
