I want to cut myself again

Question

Asked for Female, 19 Years

I've told people I used to cut but I never told them what caused it. Whenever my mom gets mad at me, I get tempted to cut. I stopped 2 years ago. But recently the urges are coming back. Maybe I'm just overthinking and sensitive. But I get really down when people get mad at me. Sucks that mom is hot-tempered and gets mad easily and her anger lasts way too long. There are times when it takes me 3 hours to fall asleep. I just can't seem to shut my brain off. I keep thinking of too much stuff. And sometimes when it's quiet, my thoughts go through my head all at once at an incredibly fast rate like they're on fast forward. So many thoughts,so fast. I hate those times. I have to force my brain to shut up.

You should consult a expert regarding this. Meet a psychiatrist first, then turn to counseling. You know for some things, you need external help. You may not be able to manage everything by yourself. And in this case, I feel, you Shari g your feelings with someone itself will be therapeutic.
