Something’s not right

Birthday

Birthday

So it’s my 19TH birthday tomorrow and I never really thought I would make it any older than 13 but here I am at 19 however I have been 8 days free from self harm and I feel like shit these 8 days have not been fun the urges are still there sort of I know it takes time but at the start I thought I was getting better and happier but I was just lying to my self in hopes that all the bad feelings would go away but the didn’t well the did for a little bit and now they are back and worse I don’t know what to do about them anymore

And like with my birthday it’s supposed to be about the person who’s birthday it’s is right ? Wrong not for me anyway I’m a triplet so there’s two more people I have to share with and if they could they would uninvite me to my own birthday party and it sucks I have no say in anything for my birthday my sister planned a party and she limited the people I could invite to 2 people and she had to approve them and then I had no say in the cake that we are having on our actual birthday and I had no say in the theme nothing and I always feel left out they don’t like me cause I’m not like them I’m different and I have felt that way my entire life

Hi @MarronButterFly

Nothing wrong with having a wee drink on your birthday, in the old days I would say "I'm just having a 1 quiet pint, followed by 9 loud ones" my mum would just roll her eyes in despair.

You could always go out with your friends and have the birthday you wanted, without those sisters of yours.............Asgard

Hi @MarronButterFly

It wouldn't have to be expensive, just something that you enjoy doing with your mate. Some of the best times I have had with friends is spur of the moment things. So what would you like to do, if money was no object?........ Asgard
