I can't get on chat right now.. But i just want to say that, ive got quite a lot of stuff going on in my head at the moment, and i dont think its fair on the people on chat... I want to say thankyou so much for all your advice and to everybody who has helped me out and listened to me.. you all know who you are.. I am so grateful... I think i am going to take a break from chat for a week or so, I need some time to think..I have got maths work and also sorting my head out... I cannot say this enough how grateful i am for all your support...


I guess i could stop all the overdoses and the selfharm but the truth is i can't, i did but then i fell back into it i feel very angry and ashamed..Kind of feel like i have let people down.. I am sorry to everybody who told me to go to the doctor and accident and emgencey and i didnt listen... I wish i could turn the clocks back


Anyway just want to say thanks.. and i will miss talking to you all.. I will still post on here but chat is pretty much out of the question for a week or so, i need time to just clear my head..

Claire

    Hey Claire, first of all you haven't let anyone down, having a relapse is nothing to be ashamed of and happens to a lot of people who are struggling with self harm and the the kind of low feelings you've been having.

    Big hugs *hug* we're all still here for you and if you feel you need a break from chat for a bit then that's a really positive step to be able to know what you need at the moment. Look after yourself and give yourself some space to clear your head a bit if that's what you need.

    Just to reassure you though, you're always welcome in chat no matter what you're going through - if it helps to come in and just listen to the conversations as a bit of a distraction then of course don't hesitate to pop in :) Chat's not going anywhere so whenever you're ready then just come along.

    Have you spoken to Samaritans again recently? Might be worth giving them a call if you're feeling alone and of course keep posting here if you need to vent, want some support or just need some virtual hugs, take care :heart:

    Sometimes I find chat is at its best when I don't feel like I have to talk about my problems. That's not all we are as individuals, or as a community.

    It can be good when you're having a bad day to just talk to people about the weather, Waterloo Road, Eastenders, dinner, work, etc. So maybe if you don't want to talk about your problems with us, you could just pop in and talk about everything and nothing for a bit.

    There's no pressure, whatever you want to do.

    :yes: This was always something I preferred doing. I don't want to discuss my problems all the time - especially when all I got was a lecture about how stupid / dangerous the stuff I was doing is.

    Finding ways to cope on your own is never a bad thing, but to get to that point where you feel you can do that without feeling worse, it's good to let others help you build the strength to do so - listen to you, comfort you and help you to identify ways you can feel positive about yourself.

    How's the revision going? :)

    I was once told that I must learn to do this. I can see his point; but it wasn't easy.
