>~~~ I am glad to see you post that. My real hope is you work on not feeling the need to want to harm yourself or feeling the need to engage in risky behavior and work towards finding better ways of coping.
I think the immediate situation of bad thoughts/questionable behavior followed by "I'm okay now" may not the bigger issue. The repetive pattern of behavior over a longish time may be the more distressful factor on the boards. For me, I sometimes feel it might be better to ignore than to feel as if I'm enabling an unhealthy situation... I feel folks are doing their best, even with some frustrations at times, to be of help. There are limitations as to what can come from an on-line mental health community and IMO, there are understandable frustrations, misunderstandings and flat out confusions.
I see good intentions from others. I see good intentions from you also. I hope you work toward helping yourself.
