It's okay to cut, right?

I can't handle anything anymore.

No, it's not okay. It will affect your body and your psychological health negatively. Expose you to infections and your mind depends on that maladaptative coping mechanism. It can become an àddiction.

There are other ways to express that overwhelming pain, scream, punch pillows, jog, talk to a friend..

Your underestimation of infections can bite you one day. You can get a sepsis inflammation and that can evolve into organ failure. It won't be a beautiful journey. And not always reversible.

Try something else.. reasonably someone who is asking is willing to.

@Miram nothing seems to help though

@fluteacorn There are enormous resources for help, don't say nothing seem to. Impossible that you explored them all. If you feel unable to do it alone and you have no friends or supportive family, I advice you to check 7cups.com for free active listeners and therapists that can guide you to solutions that suit your situation.

You don't deserve to be hurt. You will outgrow your pain. ❤
