How am I supposed to counter-act this?!
Question: How am I supposed to counter-act this!?
I'm a rehabilitating cutter and I've been good about not doing for months!. Then out of blue I got the urge to cut again!. It's not like I was stressed or depressed or anything!. It just always happens in spring and fall!. I get the urge more than in the winter or summer!. I've been blocking myself of in my bedroom with all the lights off and my window blinds shut!. Complete darkness with my headphones on blaring music!. When I get the oppurtunity to go out, I do!. But it's not often!. At school, I wear all black and sunglasses because the lights hurt my eyes and I wear headphones because it blocks out other ppl!. Also it slows my mind down and gets it running on one track instead of a million!. What could be causing this!? And how do I stop it!? It's making me anti-social and I hate that!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

There is a thing called Seasonal Reactive Disorder!.!.!.that simply means that you are reacting to the change of seasons!. You should talk to your therapist about your symptoms, because they are interfering with your day-to-day life!.
Stop using the black clothes and sunglasses and get outside and run around, kick a ball, or find a park where you can enjoy the emerging green and flowers, etc!.
It's possible that a combination of vitamins could give you a bit of help during this difficult time for you!. The vitamin B group can help your mood!. Vitamins C, D, and E might also give you a hand!. The bottom line is that you need light in your depressed life!

Do you live where you are able to take a safe walk!? I'm sure you would feel better about life if you stopped living like a hermit in a dark cave!. Roll up those blinds, get some daylight into your room, and allow life to greet you!Www@Answer-Health@Com
When you say rehabilitating cutter, does that mean you got help before!? Maybe it is time to do that again!. I'm not familiar with cutting, but I am with depression and over-sensitivity to things like light, etc!. Many people have to get help with similar issues!. That is a normal thing!. To start you can go to the school counselor!. I know that can be scary to do, but they can be a good starting point for help!. I don't know how to stop it or what could be causing it, but there are people who can find out for you!. It's a good start to ask questions here!. It seems like you really want to get better!. It's okay to ask for help and you can do it!Www@Answer-Health@Com
