I Appreciate Honesty

I'll be honest with you and myself. Recently, when I feel down, I've been having thoughts about self-harm. Few days ago, I was holding a knife at my room. I wanted to cut my thigh. I really wanted to. At that point, bleeding seemed so comforting, somehow. I dropped the knife at the last moment. I asked myself.. what's the point? Like why do I have to punish myself like that? I've never had such dark thoughts before now, not even in my teens.

It's really important that you not allow yourself to sink into that comfort, it is too hard to come back from some times. If it gets to bad you should seek out the advice of a local professional. People trained to walk you through such issues will point out things you or any of us non professionals would never even think of.
