Hi, I have been cutting myself for over 8 years now and recently I feel like Im losing control. My urges are always there and I feel like I have to take things further or cut deeper just to be satisfied. Im worried that one day Ill take it to far, and know I should see my go or something. However, I know the way and the things I think arent normal, and I do have suicidal thoughts. Im scared that telling this to a doctor, they can inform my parent or it could lead to admission to a hospital or something like that. Could you please tell me what I can do, and if this is the case?I really appreciate any advice.ThanksNikki
Hi. I understand your concern. Self injuries behavior or para suicidal behavior need proper psychological evaluation. It can be part of depression or borderline personality trait. It is like anger turns inward because of self defense Mechanism of sub conscious mind. There are threat or forgotten traumatic events that cause anger, and it will divert to body my self injuries' behavior. So need to assess it and try to verbalise all. Psychotherapy, catharsis and medicines can help. Consult psychiatrist for better assistance. Glad to answer you further. Thank you.
