Hi, uh, if this is too personal or you just don’t want to talk about it, that’s totally fine, but if you’re ok with it, what is emotional self harm? I’ve never heard of that before, but it kinda sounds like something I would accidentally do. It’s totally ok if you don’t want to answer

it’s not talked about much, but it’s actually pretty common among people with depression, in my experience at least.

basically it’s when you try to hurt yourself, but instead of doing it physically you do it to your mind. for example, reading something even though you know it’s gonna be triggering for you, insult yourself, or try and form unhealthy relationships that you know are bad for you. just examples of course, there are many many forms of emotional self harm

it’s not any less damaging or a serious issue than physical self harm. if you think you are doing it, then you might need to seek help. if therapy isn’t something you can get right now, i’ll recommend the website/app 7 Cups!

take care of yourself, alright? if you have more questions my askbox or pms are always open! ❤

i usually try to not mention this subject on this blog but i dont really have anywhere else to say it and so

i am officially one week clean of self harm!!!! granted it doesnt sound like much but it’s my longest time yet and it wasn’t that easy so im letting myself be proud of it 🙂

guess who is going to spend an entire weekend in the dreadful misgendering drama club?

really feel like jumping out of the window right now

everything i get when i type out for “trans helplines” are ones for lgb+ people

guess i’ll just… stay alone

not what i usually blog about but :

i see a lot of positivity for people who are cutting or trying to stop, but never any for those who are trying very hard not to start doing it

i see you, youre doing great and you can do it, you can stay away
