New coping method please?
OK.
So cutting is something I do usually when I'm alone at home and I'm sad/mad/stressed, or any other emotion I can't deal with; and I smoke cigs and drink whenever I get the chance.
Mostly I smoke because, ya I'm addicted now and I feel like i need it, or when I'm really stressed/sad/mad, same reasons pretty much. But cutting and smoking are both hurting yourself, just in different way.
That's sort of why i didn't mind starting smoke two years ago, because sometimes I didn't care about myself, and other times I thought maybe it would help me stop cutting...? It didn't, i just have 2 bad habits now. So I'm trying to stop both of them.
If anyone could offer any other type of coping method that I can use while I'm home and while I'm out, that would be a big help. I never really learned how to cope with stuff by watching my family, everyone just holds everything inside and lets it out when there alone, i guess, or maybe they just have a healthier coping method than i do, idk.
Anyway, if you could give some suggestions that would be great, thx =).
