Do you struggle with acts and/or impulses of self harm?


No need to get into specifics of what kinds, the chart is for point of reference for those that aren't entirely sure. Some lines are a little fuzzy. But if you do want to share I won't stop you, sometimes talking about a problem to anyone can help and I know the value of that.

I, personally, do. It's a constant these days, pretty much. I used to act on them more often than I do but while the frequency of acts has gone down the severity of impulses has gone up exponentially.

I cut my arm with a razor a number of times..
I have a bunch of scars from 18 stitches over time..

I got drunk and poured 300 aspirin into a glass of warm milk. drank it and went to sleep..

I took a 9mm automatic pistol, cocked and chambered a round. held it to my head and squeezed the trigger until it moved..

I swallowed a bottle of anti depressants and went for a walk in nature preserve where I passed out on the trail...

@SW-User I'm sorry you know that feeling of abject desperation too. It's a truly terrible thing.
