The Safe Haven

Hi, um, I'm not sure my problems are "okay" for here, but I could share them out. If that's alright. :)

That is what this area is for, trying to help us all share problems about this little thing called our life.

Well, let's see.

I have had suicidal tendencies since I was ten. Tried cutting my wrists at 14. Late teens I started to cut my fingers, then moved onto my arms. I would scratch the skin off my arms when under stress, and I still try NOT to hurt myself to this day.

I'm so sorry ... this is so sad to hear.

I wish I had some great words of wisdom but all I can offer right now is a {{{HUG}}} and hope that helps you even a little.

This is a serious issue and while not the best venue for it, this area might be the most comfortable for you.

Roughly, how old are you now, no need to be exact.

Have you sought help for this from another source?

The fact that you are here saying this means two things. One, you want to live. Two, you want help. Both are positive signs.

I'm available via PM or IM if you would rather go that route.

Thanks. *hugs* :rose:

Well, I did say it might not be right for the thread! lol

20's.
Yup.
1: Yes, under the right conditions,
2: I tried it but got "just don't do it".

:)
 
Thanks. *hugs* :rose:

PM sent, fyi

I think this is best off the boards, but will continue here if you prefer.

What brings the feelings of pain? Is it something specific?

These thoughts are not wrong or foolish. It is not a light switch that you just don't flick. These are serious issues and I am here to listen.
 
Yeah I don't know how they handle things like this. But yeah I have problems. I know, I'm fucked up. lol :D

You're not fucked up or wrong for thinking this way.

Are you having these thoughts right now? Yes, we are talking about it, but that is different from having those thoughts.

As this thread states, it is a safe haven. No judgements will be cast on you and you are free to be open here. I want to listen and help.
 
The only reason I mentioned this was for your privacy. I am comfortable hearing about this here as I would be any place else.
I have no problems being open about it, always been an open book. I keep my nails short so I can't take any skin off with them. :)

Even with the short nails, do you still scratch? Has it always been the arms or on other places as well? What is the goal you have from scratching?

You said you wanted to live under the right conditions. What are those conditions and why?

If you feel alone or that no one else thinks like this, know that most people have thoughts of suicide. I certainly have. The fact we are still here today means our will to live is greater.
 
When I posted last night i thought for sure I'd support the thread because Spicy's my friend and my friends may need help. It's always been my personal belief that I be there for them.

Now today I sit here crying on and off thinking about my father who passed last night. I have a hard time when I have to release just because I usually am the rock. I usually hold it all together.

So I guess that's why I'm here today. Just have to vent a bit and allow myself the chance to grieve for once.

{{{Hugs}}} to you. So sorry for your loss. I hope you have some great memories to carry you through.:rose:

Vent all you need, AD. Part of the process in dealing with the loss. Nothing weak about a guy crying. It is strength and trust that allows us to show our emotions rather than bottle them up and "be the rock".

(((Azul))) Even us Rocks need to vent and need support at times. Sorry, for your loss Azul.

It's kinda weird because I've been in different fits today. I'll be normal for a few moments then cry for a few.....kinda weird.
