Yikes @outlander
I take it you had to SH - I am so sorry about that - I don't understand it but I gues this was necessary to stop something worse
I can't say how sorry I am enough - I really feel for you
I have been thinking a lot the last few days - I needed time to myself to think - but I am back this morning having thought enough
I do hope those wounds are okay - stitches itch too - and remind you
I am sorry Outlander
Lots of hugs

Aw @outlander
I am sorry - that you feel so badly that you have had to do this to yourself - it is something I don't understand - my son did this and I saw him on the station and I got on my train crying and cried until I got where ever I was going - I forget where now.
Something in the forums sent me to a bad place for a day or two - nothing you wrote at all - nothing you have written has ever made me pull away - but I think it's something to be sorry about when something one person writes that makes me withdraw - and I suppose this happens from time to time for everyone one
I did read something about those bullies - ah - I don't know what to say about them - I didn't even read the whole story I am sure - I was teased by my siblings and withdrew to a place where no one could tease me - but for whatever reason they still try but never get a bite back from me - I ignore them
But that's not easy
I hope your wounds heal fast

Hi @outlander glad to hear you resisted from the 2nd urge. Sorry wasn't there last night as you went through those feelings. I hope you are feeling slightly better today?! I don't understand personally about SH but I admit I sometimes have thoughts that something really bad happens to me and takes me away from this world. I do hope in time you are able to resist those urges more. The mods appear to be quite good to support you and I hope we can give that same support to help you get through it all.
What are your plans for today and this weekend my dearest friend?
