Not doing so good...

CW: Self harm

I'll be moving back in with my parents at the end of the month, thankfully. I'm so isolated where I currently live, and it's making my mental health worse with each day. I'm just alone with my thoughts for the majority of the day.

I cut myself about an hour ago. I've never considered myself to be someone at risk of self harm before, but for the past few days I had been thinking a lot about cutting myself, and I'd been feeling awful the entire day today. It gave me a break from the negative thoughts, but now I'm worried that this will happen again. I'm gonna try turning to junk food instead, not a good way to cope but it's literally the only other alternative I have rn.

Also, I'm not sure if I should tell anyone irl about this. Maybe I will if it happens again. I hope it won't.

I wish I could hug you right now. I understand. I used to a lot, but now its just urges. I hope you can stop now.

I didn't either, until I did it. Now its something my mind jumps to every time I feel awful. Please stay safe. I care about you. Message me any time and I'll try to respond. I hope it won't happen again too. Sending more hugs meow-hug
