Who should I turn to for help?
I’d like to ask who I should turn to. My condition has been getting worse lately. I used to self-harm before, but I stopped for a year or two. During that time, things didn’t actually improve because I was constantly thinking about it. Now I’ve started again, and the worst part is that thoughts of suicide have become unbearable. They didn’t just appear out of nowhere—it’s that I’ve grown tired of everything, of everything I’ve done, of going out, of talking to people. I feel constant anxiety and stress with no apparent reason. I also have a nervous tic, and I don’t know why my thoughts keep counting the number of repeated movements—even steps. It often makes it hard to do simple things or concentrate on anything. I’ve never been to a specialist before, and I’m afraid I’ll go to the wrong place. I don’t really understand my situation because I can’t see it from the outside, but I feel terrible, especially in recent months. My mood completely disappears from time to time—I stop talking much and just want it all to disappear. Then I become hyperactive, and it’s all a cycle. Please help me. Thank you.
