Self Harm

Today got even worse. It may have been partially due to a lack of sleep, but I didn't want to deal with anyone. It felt like a die where I was either going to die or kill someone else. Figuratively speaking, of course. I'd never actually kill someone. But I was irritable and angry most of the day, as well as exhausted. I started self harming. I have scratches on my arm, shoulder, and stomach now. They're more like little red lines. I never broke the skin, so they won't leave marks long enough for anyone to notice. You know, a lot of people assume that self-harm means cutting. But that's only one kind. Pinching, scratching, hair pulling, etc, are types of self harm. No one thinks about those though.
