I need some advice

Tw sh

So I found out that some of my friends are self harming and I don’t know the best way to help them because I really want them to stop doing it, but I realise that it is a coping mechanism and sometimes an addiction. Also every time I tell one of my friends that she should stop, she gets mad at me and now she just avoids the topic.

I want whats best for them but I don’t know how to best help them.

one of my other friends told me that he recently tried sh and I don’t know what to do or Whats the best advice yk give other than just telling him to stop.

If anyone has any advice it would greatly help

I kept putting aside Biting my hand until it bruises as self harm because it wasn’t permanent scars or bleeding.

even though it was literally bruising to the point my mom, when she saw it, asked if something happened, and how I like how hard I bit it and how the bruises looked on my hand.

I think it’s kind of concerning how I wanna bite it again to see the bruises but I’m forcing myself to acknowledge that is self harm.

(Any advice on how to handle this because I have been able to stop for a while but the want is coming back more as a habit)

Honest to God, it depends on if this is more of a, "I wanna bite something," thing, or a, "I wanna harm myself," thing.. or maybe even, "I want bruises."

If it's, "I wanna bite something," I would recommend buying a toy specifically for biting. It could be the little necklace thing I've been seeing on TikTok, or it can be a baby toy. Don't even worry about it being for babies if you do get the baby toy. It's 110% better to have something like that then harm yourself.

If it's, "I wanna harm myself," please, please, PLEASE, try and talk to someone. Anyone. Your parents, your friends, a therapist or even me. If you EVER need to talk, I'm here and will not judge at all. I might not respond right away, but don't worry about it. I'm usually busy. And if me being busy makes you not wanna talk to me ((if you even felt comfortable enough to)), don't worry about it. Please. I'd much rather you text me and me respond when I can then have something horrible happen to you. You matter. You have a shit ton of people who love you. Even strangers on the internet. <3

If it's, "I want bruises," you can easily make harmless and fake bruises with markers! You can find several tutorials online, and if you need me to, I can find one and post the link to the video.

You're doing amazing with not biting yourself. I know the urge is extremely overwhelming, but please do not harm yourself, no matter what. You're body doesn't deserve it. YOU don't deserve it <3

I'm sorry if this isn't good advice, I tried my best.

Much much love to you, anon!!
