So I'm slipping n sliding very quickly into yet another depression. I've been trying to force myself to use positive coping skills, but to no avail. I'm really thinking n even wanting to self-injure. Somebody, please help

Please focus on positive coping skills. Do you have a counselor or can you talk to someone on a crisis line? I know it helps me there's several warm lines you can call. There's so many good coping skills don't self-injure.

I am concerned since you said self-injure. I hope you haven’t. I see you are in the United States. Are you aware of the “988” phone number? It is the new suicide crisis line. There is also a text crisis Line (which I have used twice). Here is the information: It is above.

What positive coping skills are you familiar with, if you don’t mind my asking?

Black and White with Words, not a picture. It is a Crisis Text line.

Not what you're looking for?
