How can I stop self-harming?

Question

I've been self harming since August 21st as I didn't do as well as I hoped in my GCSEs. I'm starting 6th form and I'm feeling nervous about my body in general (i'm short and fat with horrible hair) but people will notice the cuts and be like oh how did u get those. The more nervous I am the more likely I will self harm so it's a on-going circle

Try thinking of life like this first, and accept whatever apparent failures come your way after that.....  Then seek mentors and sponsors that believe this way, and you will do fine and you can stop this destructive behavior.  Whatever you learned before this about religion, if it does not match what you read below, shed it like a lobster does it's shell that is no longer needed!  Grow a new skin!  Good luck!

Life does not always seem FAIR!

Hi!  I am a Forgive Affirmed Spirit and this is what I profess and try to act like.

Forgive Affirmed Spirit is the belief in a way of life that is a method of grief resolution and functional communication processing involving active listenning, sympathy, empathy and affirmation of shock, denial, anger, guilt, depression, loneliness and hope...a kind of ego-equilibrium seeking methodology.

A Greater Works of communication and action, a way to learn to love your enemies "Advocating mortal life, Do unto others as you would have them do unto you AS IF YOU WERE THEM!"  



And nobody is perfect!  NOBODY!  We are all judgeable, hopefully in a graceful discerning way!   We are all doing our best every moment!

Humans judge everything  as we are a part of it.  Without difference, we have nothing to live for, nothing to witness.  Sin is difference, the relative seriousness with regards to law and survival of other beings, is punishable by the courts. The best way to judge is with as much graceful discernment as one can muster in a given moment!

Life is the question(uncertainty) asked by the exhaling infinitely compacted imagination invention, or no thing, which is completely certain of everything, completely omniscient or all knowing.

When I die, I believe I will be in a new state, aware of all that is and yet divided into the nature of dust that I am in, whereupon my dust shall fall.  My being will remain an infinite part of an infinite being and infinite knowledge without my material human being status of now. So there will be a change.



But my soul, my passions and discompassions, will move on to infinite places of comfort and challenge.  Able to return to this state of uncertainty and free choice illusion for another ride when it is called effectively to do so.

So that the children of God, the creations of God, .. are actually part in parcel of that God or Creation Energy!

This  life is a roller coaster ride. Enjoy your passion within it and whatever gathering of two or more in Forgive Affirmed Spirit to make it better can garner.

Healing be unto you and yours and me and mine in

Forgive Affirmed Spirit

Just think what I think, no one will care about whether or not you did as well as you hoped in your GCSE's in ten years time. As long as your a generally nice person, no one will give a dam about what happened. However, if you continue to self harm, that may come back to haunt you, and it will be YOU that cares about what happened back then. When you wake up in the morning, look in the mirror and say ten things that you like about yourself, take a deep breath, and start getting reasy for school. Hopefully, it will help boost your self esteem. Also, if you can admit that you have a problem, even to people who you don't know, that's a very good thing. It shows that you have recognised your problem and are mature enough to try and help yourself !

im thirteen, and although I have never had any self harming thoughts, I believe I can imagine what you are going through :D

also, if counselling is not the way to go for you, there are loads of websites all over the internet which can help you, just google "advice to help me stop self harming" Im sure you'll find some stuff! :)

Hope I helped a bit :)

Why not ask God to help? He there for any problem or trouble you need help on, that only if you ask Him for his help and hand it over to Him
