Im tired and im hurting i feel as though i am deterriorating, i sit and wonder what did i do for this? But my philosophy is simple: I dont fear death but I am Never gonna stop fighting for my life,I love life and want all of it

      Thanks for the hug and encouragement. I used ginkoba several years ago when I was undergoing tx for my throat cancer and it did help then. I'll give it another try and see how it works this time. Stay strong and have a good weekend.

    • Close Self-Injury

      I started Cutting myself when I was 16, I Suffered from severe depression and Found a ' release' from cutting my arm, watching the blood and then seeing it heal. It was what made me feel real when I was so numb from pain. I sought therapy and stopped cutting for 2 years but recently with all i have been going through have begun to do it again for that same release I once Felt. Now that I started the urge has become extra hard to fight. I am so disappointed in myself, I thought I beat this.

      This helps curve the urge for pain ... Sometimes
      Talking Working / Worked
