self harm

this is one out of the two of my major risk issues. i have self harmed for about 7 years. i do it in many ways and all over my body. i am very ashamed of it. i have scares all over my body and i have done alot of damage. people who care about me are very afraid of this because sometimes it goes to far to where it needs medical attention and either i dont get it taken care of or i do it myself.. i hate letting people down. i hope to fine some way soon to get out my unbearable feelings without haveing to hurt myself.

Yeah, I know what you are talking about. Ive self harmed for 4 years a lot. I have scars too and I feel embarrassed when I look at them. Ive been talking to people I trust about my self harming and that helps. I write poetry and I journal so, maybe try that. When the urge gets too bad, I punch a pillow or go on a walk and take all the temptations away from my reach. Trust me, thats hard but its the first step to getting help.
