I want to hurt myself

I can't stop thinking about wanting to cut and committing suicide. Last year I was a cutter and I tried to commit suicide and I regret it still, but a part of me wishes I could do it again, except this time, I wouldn't get caught. I really thought I was over this but apparently not, and I don't want to tell my mom or a counselor. I need some advice on what to do.

 

This is a very serious matter, but it’s great that you’re trying to seek help. Realizing that hurting yourself is not the right move is huge, so props on knowing that you need to find another way to deal with what’s going on.

 

This is something that is much larger than you, and you can’t take it on all on your own. You need to tell someone you trust. And trust that they will not judge you but will help you in a way in which you will feel comfortable. This could be your mother or father or a teacher or counselor. But you need to tell someone.

 

This is not something you just get over yourself. Talking to someone will help you understand why you have these feelings and then you can go from there. It is a step in the right direction that you wrote for help, but talking to your mom or a counselor will make a huge difference, I promise.

Be smart!! remember that even though right now your life doesn't seem bareable, if you end it now, you will NEVER have a second chance, it will all be gone FOREVER. If something happened to make you this way, you NEED to tell someone no matter how hard it will be, I understand, I've been there. Even if you don't know why you feel this way, you can only find out if you talk about it, what doesnt kill you makes you stronger. Look at all the comments, your not alone, people care about you!! love, Lindsey

Girl, I'm glad you understand that this is a serious matter and you are seeking help. With the help of friends, family, and trusted adults you can get all the help that you need and save your life. Committing suicide is never the answer to anyone's problems. You still have your whole life ahead of you, and this is just a bump in the road, this will not take over your whole life. There are always ups and downs in life, but realizing that suicide is never the answer is the first step to getting the help you need. Good luck girlie♥ Elizabeth P.
