tw sh talk

recently I've been limiting the amount of cvts I do because I have a limited amount of plasters and also it's easier to take care of a smaller amount of be4ns cvts to lower the risk of them getting infected, but last night I did a bunch of styros on both arms and it felt so good. It didn't give me any relief urge-wise because the only way I can satisfy that is through deeper cvts, but it satisfied the desire to see blo0d dripping down my arms. I miss being able to cvt shallow because it's so much easier to do a lot, but that's what addiction does to you I guess.

$h is such a slippery slope, and it's scary at times.

I went from doing cat scratches to cvts going through f4t in just a few years. And now even those don't satisfy the need for pain sometimes. I'm constantly chasing the unreachable goal of causing enough damage to myself, but it will never be enough. Ever.

Hi everyone,

I was curious about NSSI (non-suicidal self injury) and it’s connecting to autism. I found a source that talks about it in more detail. Here’s an excerpt:

Recent studies have examined non-suicidal self-injury in community and clinical samples, but there is no published research on non-suicidal self-injury in individuals with autism spectrum disorder. This lack of research is surprising, since individuals with autism spectrum disorder have high rates of risk factors for non-suicidal self-injury, including depression and poor emotion regulation skills. Using an online survey, we examined non-suicidal self-injury methods, frequency, severity, functions, and initial motivations in adults with autism spectrum disorder (n = 42). We also compared their non-suicidal self-injury characteristics to those of a gender-matched group of adults without autism spectrum disorder (n = 42). Of the participants with autism spectrum disorder, 50% reported a history of non-suicidal self-injury. This proportion is higher than non-suicidal self-injury rates previously reported for college students, adult community samples, and adolescents with autism spectrum disorder, which suggests that adults with autism spectrum disorder have increased risk for engaging in non-suicidal self-injury. Women with autism spectrum disorder were significantly more likely to endorse non-suicidal self-injury, relative to men with autism spectrum disorder. A history of non-suicidal self-injury was not related to current depression or emotion dysregulation for the participants with autism spectrum disorder. Non-suicidal self-injury characteristics among the adults with autism spectrum disorder were similar to non-suicidal self-injury in adults without autism spectrum disorder. These preliminary findings highlight the need for increased awareness and further research about non-suicidal self-injury within autism spectrum disorder.

I hope many of you find this helpful and informative.

Hoping these scar nicely and make me feel more valid

[nine-is-not-a-ten]

hey uh real quick gravity falls theory

TW self harm mention

isn't it weird that mabel wears sweaters all summer? like that shit's HOT

and no one bats an eye??

even her pajamas have long sleeves. there are only a couple times when we see her with short sleeves (like in Irrational Treasure). but these times are pretty far apart...

is it possible that mabel self-harms? like, she's at a pretty common age for it, so...

plus, she's mabel! no one would ever think she would do it! shes always happy! and positive! and cheerful!

so anyway uh yeah thats it thank you for your time

I doubt this will make it around to the side of tumblr I need, but I am trying to reach the self-harm community. I am needing some input/ideas/opinions/experiences to help me process ideas for an upcoming therapy session.

I am a full-grown adult (31yo) who self injured for over 15 years on a regular basis. I have been sh free for the last 6 years minus a few relapses. That being said, I am trying to work on the shame aspect of self harm and how it affects self-image, modesty, connection to others. Generally, how withholding my history of self harm and hiding my scars affects a lot of things in daily life. Like activities I might participate in or what I wear (ie. avoiding swimming, dressing modestly, etc).

I’m just looking for everyone’s personal thoughts and experiences with this. Whether you feel shame, or are more open about it. Whether it impacts you or not. Any insight you may have to help me think about my relationship to self harm would be very helpful. Thank you in advance! (And please be kind, I know this is a a sensitive topic for many people 🤍)

Does Women's Flesh count as irredeemable media because it's just like 40 minutes of someone mutilating herself.

[hopeintryingtimes]

Btw I got this tattoo a few days ago related to self harm. I was connected to that symbol (the alchemy symbol for blood) when I was deeply struggling with sh, and now it's here to support me. It's on my scarred arm, but the scars don't show in this pic. I feel like a warrior. Fuck yeah.

[She was whispering now, her eyes open as she stared down at the water. The chain's color shifted to pink- a familiar pink... a fleshy pink... it tightened around her throat, tight enough to choke, its ONLY inhibition from pulling her head clean off being Mikey's scritches grounding her just enough to keep her from being dragged down too much further. She dug her nails in deeper, little trickles of blood running down her head around her fingertips. That could be worried about later- when her breathing didn't come in short gasps, when she could hear, when she wasn't being actively tormented. She'd have to wait it out to get treatment.]

Tw/Sh

I kinda have permission to cut rn from the only people who can do anything about it

When I was a senior, I was caught with razors in my bathroom.

My mom told me that if I waited until I graduated then she didn't care whether I chose to SH after. So I stopped for the rest of the year.

Now

My husband let's me because he wants me to get better. So I am allowed to SH tonight as bad as I want, but I have to be clean for a few months after.

It's kinda bittersweet

A month clean, and it's safe to say i may never return

A reminder

Trigger Warnings for mentions of SH

To all of those struggling with SH, there is a road out of this even if you doubt there is one.

I wish I could say that the scars on you could disappear but they can't. But instead of taking them as a sign of weakness, take them as a sign of growth.

For the sake of yourself and everyone you love. Make sure to love yourself and all of the damage you have endured and survived. You are a survivor of an addiction, and every day you go on is a sign of your strength.

Wether you're in the vicious cycle of addiction or recovering still after being clean for a long time. You are strong for carrying on in spite of it. Do not let anyone convince you otherwise.

You aren't an attention seeker. You aren't edgy. You are a victim of a deadly addiction, and every day you live is a testament to the human spirit.
