self-injury is a means of coping

Recommended Posts

Around the same time that I first got very depressed my little sister was diagnosed with cancer. Everybody was very concerned for her for obvious reasons so I don’t think they noticed how badly I was doing and it didn’t seem right to add to the stress with my problems. When I tried telling my mother she didn’t take me seriously and I felt helpless. Cutting myself in the hotel bathroom during my sisters Make a Wish trip now seems like a pathetic attempt to prove to myself that my pain was real and that it mattered. Pointless. I wish I wasn’t still doing the same thing.
