TW: self-harm - Feeling too many things has me feeling even worse

Just recently I had cut myself for the first time. I had been feeling really shitty over something and it just happened. The strangest thing happened when I did. I had been crying/in tears when I was about to do it and when I finally did, it was like my mind cleared up and I didn't feel sad, or anything really. It had calmed me down in a way? It may sound weird but that numbing feeling lasted for about a couple of days - I didn't feel sad, or happy, or anything. I only really felt a bit tired but honestly, it was better than constantly feeling like shit. sometimes I don't even know what I'm feeling my head just feels heavy - and not in a headache-y type way - it feels heavy and clouded with thought as stupid as that may sound to some.
I don't know what the point of this post was really.

Replyhey, as someone who struggles with self harm, its a sure sign of the beginning of an addiction. self harm works like that and it sucks. the brain learns to become addicted to it because it realizes it stops the pain. i really recommend you try your best to try and stay away from it. self harm is a really horrible thing i hope no one gets hooked on. i also recommend looking up alternative coping mechanisms so you dont fall into it. best of luck and lots of love <3
