Harming again

[Celticroots]

Due to stress from a recent move, I've started harming again and have bruises on my legs. My Mom is stressed from the move and I am convinced she's depressed. She's having emotional break downs and I think that is what is making me want to hurt myself. I have depression as well.

I love her but this is hard.

I am having her come in at my next counseling session because I can't go on like this. Please pray for me regarding this, that it goes well, because the last thing I need is her getting upset. I can go for a long time without harming then will relapse when things get stressful then I start again.

As a person who's self-harmed many times, I genuinely feel for you. The self harm isn't the worst part for you, is it? It's what you're dealing with that causes you to self harm; that's the real pain. Just know that someone else understands and I will pray for you tonight that God will guide you to handle the negative parts of life without needing to harm yourself or want to commit suicide. I know how it feels and there is better way to view life, with God in mind at all times. I think of how awful God must feel when I do things like that. And that he loves me and doesn't want that for me, but that he wants me to be at my best always and enjoy the life that he gifted me. If you ever need someone to talk to message me!
