I didn’t really think ‘oh, this could be a mental health disorder’ when I first started self-harming.
Actually, I didn’t even consider the fact I could have anything ‘wrong’ with me until.. I think it was the 14th suicide attempt? I can’t remember.
My mental health was just absolute s**t, but I kept ignoring that, because I didn’t want anything to be ‘wrong’ with me.
It was a few months ago I decided I needed to get some help - when I first started hearing the voices.
Last night... I don’t really know how to explain this, but the voices (there’s two of them - one has a really sad and whispery voice, the other one has a really loud and somewhat hoarse voice) kept telling me to pour paint over everything in my room, if I did then they’d leave me alone. Y’know, at first I tried to ignore them, but... s**t, I’m bad at explaining, but I was fully aware of what I was doing.. but I couldn’t really control it? Idk. Anyway, ended up listening to the voices. And they didn’t leave me alone after that, either.
After the paint ‘incident’, I decided I f*****g had enough, so I spoke to childline.
It didn’t really help, but it did make me think ‘hey, I probably have a mental health disorder’.
So... fun. Report Final score: 1point elloelloello POST Birgit M Birgit M Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 year ago I‘m so sorry for you!

Report Final score: 1point TheartfulDutchGinger POST #10 I got so angry at my 2yr old so for getting out of his bed before the end of nap time that I picked him up and threw him bk into the bed. At least I meant to. Instead I threw him into the wall. He wasn’t hurt. But I knew I was in trouble at that moment. I’d always had anger issues but was able to manage it more often then not. When it effected my son in such a dramatic way I had to do something about it. I told my husband to take care of our son and walked out the door, drove directly to the docs office, (family doc gp knew her forever) and had bloody palms from digging my nails into them by the time I got to see her. Told her I needed help. She handed me a sample pack of pills told me how to take them and said come bk in three days. ( She also called my husband to check on my son and make sure I wasn’t abusing him. She had him bring my son in to check him out but I didn’t know any of that for years. I’m grateful she did it though). This all happened almost exactly 26 years ago and I have been on antidepressants for anger ever since and very successfully.
