With this Perez Hilton self-harm video circulating, I as a therapist wanted to give y’all a brief explanation on that topic:
Self-injury like cutting is non-suicidal self-injury. The intent is to find some level of emotional regulation for overwhelming feelings, interrupt numbness or dissociation, or regain a sense of self-control.
A normal reaction to that is “why would anyone livestream that”?
Well, that’s the point. That person is not thinking logically. They are in crisis. They both want help, and want to help their self. They know that once that video is seen, someone will come help them, and they will get some relief. It’s a cry for help.
If you find yourself or someone you know in this level of crisis, you can call the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline (Call or text 998), or you can contact a trusted therapist or crisis service. Prioritize physical safety and connection with people who can help.
@lesbianlvr69 Only chiming in to say that social workers are trained and require weekly supervision until obtaining a clinical license which is minimum three years post grad
WTF timeline are we on. Someone called me the MAGA whisperer and I’ll gladly take the title. Left, right, D or R we all want the same things. We’re being divided on purpose by the Epstein Elite Oligarch class because as long as we’re at each other’s throats, they get fat and rich off of our misery. The second we figure out we agree on more than we disagree, they’re done. Love your neighbor. Be yourself. Radical honesty. No fucks given, no fucks taken. Everything else is just noise. (But still fuck Jake “Brick Tamland” Tapper on any time line)
We’ve lost the art of just being like “hey man that was kinda uncool.” Everything has to be the biggest deal ever and people have to be groveling begging for forgiveness and apologizing profusely for every little thing. Sometimes a “yeah that was uncool my fault guys” is enough
I once knew a fat f*cker who always had a girl obsessed with him
He was at least 400lbs and did nothing but smoke weed
Worked at Walmart
Of course the girl were also fat and hideous
But they loved him and he loves him
Always bragged about the freaky fat people sh*t they would get up to
I respect that mfer
Nowadays fat f*ckers get on Twitter and cry about how women have high standards
This guy just realized what league he was in and played in it
I’m a British Jew in England
I didn’t interpret #DeathToTheIDF as a call for people to kill me because
1. I’m not in the IDF
2. It doesn’t call for the death of individuals - the clue is in “The IDF”
3. I’m not brain dead
"male loneliness epidemic" I think is driven in part by the fact that the labor involved in maintaining relationships is a task largely delegated to women. Relationships do not come into being out of nothing, they are maintained by a lot of labor that a lot of men refuse to do
