    Hi Lemon,

    I'm not sure if anyone PM'd you, so just wondered how you are now?

    It's great that you want to make changes in your life, that's the first hurdle to get over - you have the will to stop and change. What makes you say that you should be done with all the hurt now? Have you set yourself a target for 'recovery'?

    Do you have anyone that supports you - professionals, friends, family, mentors?

    Take care and keep posting :)

    hey
    yeah one person did,
    thanks for caring
    I guess i mean i just wish i could be better all at once and tht everyone expects me to just get over it and i cant ):
    I have like dates that i know i need be "normal" and "healthy" for and im trying but its really hard
    My parents dont know, I have a church mentor and a councellor, but im not sure if the councelling is helping so i might stop. They help, and two of my best friends are supportive, but one of them doesnt really understand and the other one is in hospital at the moment.
    Thanks for replying

    Hi there Lemon :)

    Sounds like you're feeling isolated at the moment and finding it difficult to believe your parents can understand where you're coming from. It can be really tiring keeping up a pretence that we're okay when we're not! And hard work trying to work out what's going on and how to change things too! I know I hate being stuck.

    Is there anything you can do to take your mind off things? Perhaps something you do you enjoy - exercise, making music - what do you enjoy?

    Keep posting - people here really know that everyone has difficult times and thats "normal" :wave:

    Is this normal?
    PLEASE REPLY ASAP, just kinda need to know =S
    thanks
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    If you are stressed its quite normal to loose your appetite for a bit. But make sure you eat :)
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    Because I didn't think it'd be appropriate to create another Topic; I'd like to be able to talk to someone via a Private Message if at all possible. I'd just like someone to talk to me; whether or not it'll be able to help me is questionable but I'm frightened and unsure; and alone.

    :frown:
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    Ok, so it is normal!
    Everything feels so odd atm and im pretty lost tbh. I want it to all go away. And i always let people down. I never seem to sleep.
    It just hurts, it all hurts :(
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    Know how you feel babe. Keep going though, it's possible to get through, just takes time and it's not easy. Writing stuff down sometimes helps...though i find music the best, playing it/listening to it...
    Here if you wanna talk:heart:

    Its just so hard ):
    Feel like im in a bit of a nightmare, dnt wna put specifics on here tbh but yeah :(
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    *hugs*
    It's hard, but don't let yourself be put off by that, it won't last forever.
    And you're not alone:)

    Have you tried Samaritans? They're really helpful.
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    Im too scared :(
    dont know what i would say =S

    Don't be scared, the samaritans are all volunteers who only want to help anyone in need. If you feel like you can't talk to someone over the phone, you can also email them: http://www.samaritans.org/ If you don't know what to say, maybe try writing it down first?

    Hope you feel better soon.
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    Wow. I didn't expect for people to write a Private Message to me; in fact I'm going to have to write a single Private Message to distributed via CC:, or BCC: dependent as to whether or not other people would like to know I'm communicating with; I realize it's a difficult subject to talk about; but if I'm able to help other people too, it'd make me happy. Thank you!

    :blush::o:heart:

    Maybe i will try it online, im really bad at talking on the phone and wouldnt it show up on the phone billy thing?
    Has anyone ever tried samaritans online or childline's messaging thing?
    If so did it help?
    Im still scared to but i might try it when ive worked up the courage
    thanks everyone

    Everything hurts

    Panic setting in.
    Temptation taking over.
    Eyes Prickled with tears.

  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    I can understand what your all saying. I'm trying to quit cutting. I've quit for only a year and right now I'm twitching, I want just a taste, only a little. My mom threatened to throw me in a psych ward if she catches me again. I've been caught twice. So I cut my hips. but i feel so lost, alone and no one understands-my mom doesn't understand. She can't even shut up to let me talk. She won't,let me have a therapist and god...She cuts me off so much... I just want to get out of here, I can't take it anymore. I just...i need someone to talk to. I'm falling apart and under so much stress about college, I'm only in grade 10! I wanted to go on an exchange student program and my mom wouldn't let me go cuz she thought I was running away from my problems. I just want to get out of this dead end city for a while...I just want to be halfway across the world sleeping under a cherryblossom tree...that would be nice. Sorry for rambling...I'm really freaking right now. It's getting worse every day. My life's not that bad either...My mom is just not fair and won't hear my side of the story...

    I didn't think it'd be appropriate for me to create another Topic about the aforementioned subject; but I'd like to be able to talk to someone via a Private Message if it's at all possible. I've talked to various Samaritans volunteers today; SANELine etc. and it hasn't helped me.
