Venting cut again

[sleepydeaths]

got stressed and frustrated during a conflict with friends and ended up cutting again.. it's going to look pretty nasty when it scars over and it's already beginning to ache

it's so difficult being alive i wish i didn't have to deal with my feelings or deal with hardship. i was never cut out for this

I'm sorry this happened with your friends. I also recently started cutting again as well, its rough and this planet is full of jerks and fake people who can't be bothered to care about how their actions/words affect others. Take care of yourself and I wish you luck on your journey.

thank you.. it was a conflict about a friend struggling with addiction. i was a little firmer in my approach talking to them compared to my other friends, which only hurt my friend struggling. im deciding to just leave the subject alone on my end now. i don't want to upset my friend but i can't have the gentle approach my other friends have, especially since substance abuse is a touchy subject for me. maybe that's selfish of me.. i don't really understand anything. none of them are bad people or fake. life is so difficult.

Yeah that's a difficult situation but at least you were caring enough to talk to them about it. It might be a good idea for the sake of your own peace to drop it with that person and let things settle for a bit. chances are if they want to talk about it in any meaningful way they will come to you. addiction is a hard thing to live with and fight through and for some it takes more time than others to reach that point of communication. It also does not seem like a selfish thing to reach out to that friend and offer some words of wisdom, that conversation is definitely a hard one to have and shows love imo.

Take care!
