I made an appointment for the counseling center for Monday at 3:00pm. I've decided I need to get over cutting and self-injury. I'm absolutely terrified to go!! I don't know how to tell her... If anyone has any suggestions on what to say or how to bring it up, please let me know. Erica said she'd help me but it's always nice to have multiple options and opinions. Even though this visit is making me incredibly anxious, I know I have to do it...
Thank you Christina and Judith Marie for all your wonderful comments! Having comments to read is such a great feeling. It really means a lot.
Well I've got to go to finish getting ready for class and the rest of my day. It's only 10:15am here. Refreshingly short post after the last really long one, haha.
Oooooh hun, I'm always here for you if you want to talk over anything. The way I brought up self harm was to just spit it out. It's easier that way. The more I talk around the topic, the less likely I am to talk about it in the end. Just go in there and say that you're having trouble with self harm and everything else will come out after that.
ReplyDeleteGood luck with it and let me know what happens!
Judith is right, the only way I've been able to do it is just by coming right out with it. Once I went to my doctor to tell him about it. I just stared at the floor and blurted out with "IcutmyselfandishouldprobablystopbutIneedhelp. Thanks."
ReplyDeleteYou feel better once you say it. Tell us how it goes, wishing you lots of luck!
