Not having a good day

Rose113

I’ve been battling a chest infection since before Christmas and then because Christmas happened I’ve woken up really unwell today and I can’t hear anything, my body feels achey, my throat hurts, I have a headache and like as soon as I walk downstairs I have to sit in the sofa for a bit I just have no energy and I feel floaty and dissociated

My mum has gone out to pick my grandad up because he’s spending Boxing Day with us and we’ve made a roast dinner and stuff but tbh I’m just not feeling it

I’m staying in pyjamas cos it’ll be handy for going sleep as soon as dinner is over :,) d

TW// self harm

Last night I self harmed (the wounds are okay and I’m safe) didn’t do what I hoped it would (didn’t give me relief) so that kinda sucks. I have a silly reason for why I self harm, it’s so stupid and I wouldn’t even say it’s a valid reason for doing it but yeah. Sorry 🙃

@Rose113 i just want to say that whatever your reason is for self harming, it is NOT silly - you self harm for a reason, a valid reason!!

of course there are safer alternatives however you started self harming because you needed something and found that self harm gave you whatever it was you needed and that is ok - when you feel able to, trying alternatives is great, but it’s ok if that isn’t something you feel able to do - no one should expect you to stop self harming either, you’ll be ready to whenever you’re ready to! pls just try and be safe with it though🩷
