How do I know if I'm having a mental breakdown?

Im scared, i cut myself again and i need someone?

  • please dont judge me or put hate comments. im not emo or anything and im not a "cutter", i know its bad and that i need to stop and its not like im addicted to doing it. my two friends did it so maybe i got the idea one day when i was in the shower i got so mad at myself and sad and had all these confusing thoughts in my head, so i guess cutting since it was something my friends had done it poped in my head and i just did it. i talked to my mom about it and all was good, it healed and went away and is barely noticable and i vowed to never do it again. than one day i found out my ex boyfriend whom broke up with me liked one of my closest friends exactly a day after he broke up with me. i cut my self like 4 loose cuts on my arm and when i was doing it i was sobbing and blaming myself for letting myself get attachted to him. ofcourse i know this isnt true the cuts have long now healed and are little almost unnoticible scars there, but if u look closely u can see them. i also talked to my mom about this time, she ofcourse said dont do it again and all. then today i was so stressed out long story short all this stuff has been happening in my life recently, and recently i have been kinda depressed. havent gone out with my friends in a month, just coming home and doing homework and slumming around. im doing it right now alone at home on a saturday night. my mom was getting mad at me, and my step sister moved in i have no privacy whatsoever anymore i cant do it. i ran down stairs while i was basically having a mental breakdown while my stepdad was watching tv, mom working, and step sister in the shower. i grabbed a knife and cut myself on my side beneath my arm. they are very light, but im terrified for scars. i know this is my fault, and i shouldnt have done it, but i felt like i had no one else like if i went to my mom crying feeling very overwhelmed all she would have done was be mad and start saying stop crying i need to work blah blah so i didnt go to her. i told her about me being very sad and stressed out and tired all the time, and maybe even depressed so she made me a docters appointment. i dont want to have scars all over my body in 10 years knowing that i was a screwed up child, being a "cutter" with depression and all so i want help now. im just afraid i wont get any anti-depressants cause i rly know i need help to control my stress and depression (constantly tired, no motivation to do anything, feeling very sad sometimes and very lonely) should i tell the docter about the cutting? im really scared that he will like say "we should send you to a cutting therapy group and everything" i dont want that! i dont need that! i know its bad i just want help to control my emotions and stress, its so overwhelming i feel like dying sometimes. thank you

  • Answer:

    Yes. I agree. Immediately try to take help from close quarters like your beloved parents or affectionate friends or relatives. Or talk to some good Samaritan neighbors, or take some moral guidance from a counselor/mentor. Where there is a will, there are several ways to solve such problems. As a last resort, pray for a while daily in the early hours of the morning. Prayer does lot of wonders in life like a miracle.

between the ages of 14 & 17 i was continually cutting myself every time i got angry no matter the reason i would make some really long cuts on my legs it got to the point where i couldn't wear any short clothes because my leg was marked up really badly i never told anyone i would sit in the bathroom with a razor blade and abuse myself just because i didn't know how to control my emotions eventually my sister saw and told my mom and she was distraught and she told my aunt who in her craziness took a knife to my throat and told me if i really wanted to cut then cut my throat it ocurred to me then that i didn't want to die but if i continued doing what i was doing i may go eyen further and really hurt myself my aunt told me life is a ***** & then we die so why not make the most of life now why not do things that would make me happy and just forget all the **** that life gives and i learned to talk to people and tell them how i felt all the time now i'm married with 2 kids of my own and i look at that time as a phase in life and i realised that i controlled my situations & i didn't allow it to get bigger than me so you need to weigh your situations and decide if you are going to overcome them or if you are going to let them overcome you

I hope your doctor gives you meds. Really what I'd do is tell him about the depression and emotions. Then if he doesn't give you meds tell him of the cuts. Ill be here for you add me on Facebook ( Melanie Lynn Mitchell ) ill try to help.

i think you should tell the doctor about the cutting. tell him/her that you've stopped and dont need therapy. i understand what youre going through completely and i may be able to help. if you would like, email me [email protected]. anyhow, if you are still having trouble i suggest talking to your parent(s)

Just remember that life will get better! Okay, now I know you probably don't want to hear this from a total stranger, but if your friends are cutting they are probably aren't the best people to hang out with. Try making new friends that don't cut because hanging out with your friends that do, they wont stop you. Also, anti-depressants can make you feel worse, expessially if your under the age of 18. and also, remember that there's people that love you an care or you and want to help! There are lots of people out there, and there's always someone to help when you need it, you just may not have met them yet! And this time, final final thing I'll say, find something that makes you happy! It could be something that's a giant goal like studying abroad or learning an intrument, or a tiny thing like looking at boxes of kittens! :) Lots of love and hope for happiness! I hope you wil fulfill your dreams!
