self harm Posted: 03-05-08 14:02pm
For about 2 years now ive been really down
and moody. I dont have alot of friends and
dont get along with alot of my family.
I have selfharmed throughout them 2 years
and finding it hard to stop.
I have reasons for this but i dont know
what drove me to do it? I just did.
This year has been the worst for me, i
self harm everyday and make myself sick, i
dont know whats happening to me. I am
trying to stop myself but i cant. I feel
like im 2 people, there is me when im just
normal and then there is another me who is
distructuve and mean and evil. But i know
its me, i know that might sound stupid but
its the only way i can put it.
I feel like im going crazy, i dream and
think weird things and words just go round
in my head and i dont know where they come
from,like having a conversation with
yourself in a way.
Im only 16 but its really scaring me.
Ive had councilling in the past just to
get over some family and school issues but
this problem is getting in the way of
everything. I cant concentrate in school
and im failing my subjects and getting
into trouble with my parents and teachers.
I dont know what do. Is it just me?
I hope someone can reply with some advice
for me, to tleast put my mind at rest or
maybe to point me in the right direction
as in what to do.
thankyou

You are not going crazy, don't worry! But
you have some emotional problems and this
is what is making you depressed to the
point of self-harming. You absolutely
must get someone on your side who will get
you the help you need, whether it be a
trusted teacher, a parent, or your doctor.
It would be impossible for anyone here to
accurately diagnose your symptoms but I
work with young people and I know that
self-harming, making yourself sick and so
on is all symptomatic of an overwrought
nervous system. Exams, peer pressure,
family concerns, relationships ... at 16
you have immense pressures on you and you
need someone to talk to about it. You
sound rather isolated, with no really
close friend to talk to. So get a
professional to talk to you: a therapist,
a counsellor, a friendly doctor.
Please don't feel alone - you can post
here as there are many good people who
will listen to you and try to help. I
will do what I can, too, but please try to
get some professional help.

Is there somthing mentally wrong with me? repost Posted: 03-06-08 13:53pm
i would try and get help but what if my
parents find out, they dont even know
about my councilling because i kind of
black mailed my councillor into not
telling them. They would be furious with
me. And what could they do for me? I doubt
there is much they can do. It is the first
time ive contacted one of these talking
pages, i was just looking for information
about what may be wrong iwth me and this
came up. Im glad to know im not crazy, but
i dont really like what is happening to me
and i hope i can stop before i become
really bad, i dont really want to be taken
away from my family eventhough they drive
me crazy. can i ask a question??? are
these messages i am writing to you
private?
thankyou

Girl- check out the self-injury forum,
hopefully you could get some insight and
support there from others who have been
through the same thing.

Hi Sweetie! Me Fairy*Godmother Posted: 07-03-08 13:46pm
You are NEVER alone here! I for one know
if you were my daughter and you told me
you were having these feelings, I would do
everything in my power to see you got the
professional help you needed. There are
wonderful doctors and programs that can
help you. I do hope you're parents are
understanding and will do whatever it
takes to be by your side. I wouold want my
daughter to be able to talk to me about
these things and not feel she had to go
through this alone. She turns 25 this
year...........we have a great
relationship. This is not something you
need to go through alone, and its not
something you can just FIX....you are only
16. If you don't seek help, it will only
get worse. ITs NOT YOUR FAULT.....I know
its gonna be tough to try to explain to
them and tell them, but the sooner you do,
the better and it will all be out in the
open and then you can start to seek help.
I wish you were closer............I'd be
there with you to help you explain to
them! Keep in touch. Feel free to PM me
anytime! HUGS!

I use to self harm, but I just wanted
attention, I didn't really want to hurt
myself. I found out from my doctor that I
am borderline personality.
I hope that you can go to your doctor and
get help that you need. The sooner the
better, medication can take a bit to
figure out before the right one works.
