Feeling low

[Amandadines]

Over the last few days I’ve been feeling low Have been self harming but I feel really guilty that I self harmed. I just wished I never did it because it doesn’t make you feel better at all. And I don’t want to do it again.

Firstly don't feel guilty that you resorted to self harming. Sometimes it is the safest alternative and providing you self harm in a safe and clean environment then it isn't necessarily a problem. If you can talk / vent to people (like on here) before the need is that bad then all is well and you will find that we are non judgemental and have huge amounts of compassion and empathy. If the urges are becoming more overwhelming then perhaps a chat with your GP or see if you can self refer for talking therapies in your area.

Stay safe, stay chatty, stay well x
