I thought it was just me; Self-Harm

[nursingpassion]

I am currently in nursing school and I was just reading my Pediatrics textbook about mental health. I got to the page about self harm and I was about to cry. I have been clean for a little over a year but the hunger to relapse has never left. To me it was an addiction, like it physically felt so good. It wasn’t painful at all, it was euphoric. It was an immense amount of pleasure. I thought I was the only one who felt so addicted to it for this reason. Turns out I was wrong 🙂

We all need help sometimes reach out to others and don’t suffer alone

You know and have read the basics on Self Harm you need to act on the reasons why you cut yourself. You have not cut for twelve month take this chance to move on away from this and become a Good Nurse.

I know it is difficult, Life is hard and sometimes we need to be strong to get what we want, replace the negative with positive expectations. If the need to talk to your Doctor make that appointment.

So happy you have been able to stop for 12 months.

I hope you can continue to find healthy ways to express yourself.

Good luck in school
