Hey @Lost_lonely_kitten03 and thank you for sharing with us today. I know how hard it can be to open up and ask for help, so I just want to say well done on taking such a big step!
I am so sorry to hear that you have been going through so much lately and that you have been having these bad thoughts about hurting yourself. I can only imagine how horrible and distressing that must be for you, especially without the support of your best friend. You mentioned that you have been trying to get your mental health back on track for a little while, were you able to find any strategies that do help you feel a little better or offer a distraction, even just for a short time?
You also mentioned that you asked your mum for help yesterday, I just want to say just how brave that was! That shows just how courageous you are and I think thats definitely something to be proud of. Do you mind me asking how she responded after hearing that things are getting worse? Was she able to make any suggestions that might help?
As these feelings can be really strong and overwhelming, I wonder what kind of supports you have around you right now. No one deserves to be alone at a time like this, and so I am wondering if you would feel comfortable talking to a health professional at all? I also highly recommend reaching out to a service like KidsHelpline who are available via phone and webchat.
We also have a number of great articles about Self-Harm, Support services and one on self-help ideas too, which may be worth a read.
I also just want to add a big thank you for letting us know that you're safe at the moment. You are important to us and so I just want to remind you that you're not alone and we're all here for you 💜
