i feel so horribly depressed and i want to cut?!
Question: I feel so horribly depressed and i want to cut?
Answers:
All I can say is to try and distract yourself from cutting as much as possible. Snapping rubber bands against your wrists sometimes helps- it gives a similar sting without actually hurting yourself.
Or you could try the Butterfly Project, where you draw a butterfly on the place you want to cut and name it after someone who wants you to get better. If you cut, you kill all the butterflies you've drawn. The point is to not kill the butterflies, of course.
I'm glad you're getting help. Your doctor will probably boost the dose of celexa if he/she feels you need a higher dose. Easing onto the medication is one of the best ways to prevent unwanted sideaffects.
I have been suffering from depression for 3 years and when i cut i feel like nothing can touch me like all the thoughts that haunt me day in and day out just melt away. Suicide is something i think about on a daily bases. Please please dont end up like me....get the medication you need find someone to talk to don't hurt youself...i may sound like a huge hypocrite, i cant explain it but i cant stand other people hurting themselves. Just hang in there.
take it one day at a time, if you dont today think of the relief youll feel tomorrow :) for now try and find a distraction and cheer yourself up a bit, go out with a friend or watch a film:) i know its hard! good luck
been there
You really need to STOP!!! Why are you trying to hurt yourself???! Life is bad sometimes but there is no reason for cutting yourself... You need to go to the hospital or something... Get a hobby punch a pillow or something... Good Luck and take your meds!
just try to relax and please dont cut, its a bad way to cope that only provides temporary relief and hurts those that love you
