I Have Anxiety

Whenever I get overly anxious about something, I think about harming myself to get out of whatever is bothering me. And I mean I want to legitimately injure myself. I want to slam my hand in a door or throw myself down a flight of stairs. The goal is to have a broken bone or sprained body part. I’ve acted on these impulses before and it seems they only get stronger.
