TW - self harm

I messed up by accident and my carelessness affected other people. I feel so, so bad. I dont know what to do with myself. I feel like I need to punish myself and I’m in this constant limbo of should I undo years of work and SH or do my best to fight the thoughts? I don’t know what’s the best thing to do. My mind won’t stop.
PS: I’m safe, I never do anything serious.

    I don’t know what happened but what I do know is that everyone makes mistakes, Toe. It doesn’t make you a bad person or anything. You don’t need to go and punish yourself. Sure look it, you’re here feeling awful terrible about it all, that’s punishment enough 💚

    Fight the thoughts, if you can. Is there anything else that would help? Distractions or another coping mechanism?

    I’m sorry you’re hurting so much Toe. You’re honestly one of the nicest people. You don’t deserve any of this sadness 💚

    Thank you @Faolan it kind of sounds stupid but I accidentally set an alarm that went off in an exam. It was a mock at least but I just feel like I ruined it for everyone.
    I’ll try to distract myself. Thank you for being here 💚

    OMG you didn’t ! That’s terrible and deserves life in jail with no possibility of parole 🤬

    Nah, it’s not stupid. I say it was mortifying in the moment but honestly shit happens like, it’s one of those things that you’ll probably laugh about in years to come.

    I say it was sorted in no time too. No harm done💚

    Big hugs. You’ve a good soul. 🫂
