@CalmWaves3939 Hi! Self-harming can be a very challenging. Coping with this addiction and actually overcoming it takes a lot of effort and support from others! Thank you for checking in for everyone that's struggling with it! It can be very helpful.

I agree it can be a very challenging time especially as the weather and seasons change for many places in the world. I love seeing everyone's thoughts and sharing their feelings in one space as part of a community. Thank you for your comment 💜

Hi hi~! ♪( ´▽`)

🍁 I’m gonna dress up as my best friend because it’s a cheap and easy costume lol- I already asked if I could borrow some of his clothes for that day, and he said sure. Then I’ll probably just eat/hand out candy and read while listening to spooky music.

🍁 My favorite part of autumn is the weather and the aesthetic. Can’t say no to the multicolored leaves and the crisp wind! My favorite part of Halloween is all the cool costumes. It’s awesome to see the creativity people have!

🍁 Nothing too crazy; I have a doctor’s appointment tomorrow, and then my roommates and I are going to go grocery shopping sometime this week. The most interesting thing I have planned is practicing baking things for a friend’s upcoming birthday. I can’t decide on if I want to give them a lemon cake, mint chocolate chip brownies, or spicy chocolate cookies.

🍁 I’ve been feeling up and down; I’ve had a lot of mood swings with the only constant emotion/feeling being tired. Guess I need to take a break more often. 😅

Thank you for the check-in; I appreciate you! Sending endless love like the scattering of autumn leaves~ ♥️🍂🍁

@TheAutumnWitch 🎀

Ooo! I bet you and your friend will have a good laugh with your costume 😄 It sounds like a great idea! And it sounds like you have similar plans to me with reading and handing out candy (but I will also be watching scary movies 😮)

I love the way you see Halloween with all the creativity! I love the time for scary movies 👻

I hope your doctor's appointment went well and I hope you have done some superb baking😋 I am a sucker for chocolate 🍫

It is good that you have identified you may need a break. It really shows your own self-awareness 💖 I hope you start to feel better soon! Thank you so much for taking the time to check in! 💗

Sadly, I don't know if I can agree... I am scared of the dark 😮💗 But I have to admit I enjoy the cooler weather! Any excuse to wip out the fluffy socks and drink all the hot chocolate I could dream of 😋

Plans for Halloween - try not to die or SH due to trauma anniversary sh-t. Probably see my therapist. Probably have a friend stay with me for a couple days. Probably eat too much chocolate.

Favorite part of autumn: donuts and apple cider.

How have I been feeling: anxious, depressed, angry. Struggling. A lot.

@lemonSys

Thank you for sharing Lemon 🎀 I can hear you are struggling at the moment and the Halloween time seems to be a trigger. It is good to know you are trying not to harm yourself and you are hoping to spend time with your therapist and friends 💗 It is good to have a support system in place.

This is the best time for you to eat all the chocolate you want! I hope you enjoy the chocolate (save me some!) 🍫 I am glad to know that even though autumn is a difficult time for you, you are still able to see some good in autumns such as the donuts and apple cider! ✨

Thank you for reaching out on 7 cups, you are not alone in your feelings we are here for you 💜

Ooo! That sounds like an awesome costume and group dress-up idea 💗 I love scooby doo 😄

I have never heard of over the garden wall! I will have to have a look into it 😮

I can hear you are currently overwhelmed, and it is good that you have your group dress-up to look forward to! I understand it can be difficult to cope with these feelings, but I am glad you found my post and shared your thoughts and experiences 💜 We are here for you!

  • Do you have any plans for Halloween? (Would you like to share?

I really don’t.

  • What is your favourite part of autumn and/or Halloween?

Rewatching over the Garden wall is genius idea. I love it so much.

  • Any plans for this week?

bonfire at the weekend.

How have you been feeling recently?

I had a fight with my best friend last night and I’m super triggered and thinking along very unhealthy lines at this moment. I’ve been generally good. I need to take what my psychiatrist gave me though. I’ve just been so busy and overwhelmed I stopped taking the things…

One day I feel like I’m going to lose my friend because of a little miscalculation in a social situation that is the last straw for her. And then I will have to try to be strong and not just spiral/give up to honor her memory even if she is done with me. This is not dramatic, she literally told me one day it will be the last time… I just am not coping super well. And I usually tell her when I’m triggered and it gets bad but I don’t feel I can today.

Self-Harm Recovery Check-In is back from 10th Oct-16th Oct! After the last check-in left a lot of you wanting more, this huff post time we're looking to make it even better. We'll be taking part in a Self Esteem Event for Mental Health Awareness Week, on top of the previous chat with our head counsellor.

You're struggling. You're feeling down, low and ready to give up on life. It's time for a check-in, a self-help period where you can work on things that keep you going. 10th October to 16th October 2022. Los Angeles, California — In these two weeks, I’ll be running a free online program for people who have been living life thinking everything was fine and *** – but then realize that it’s not quite so fine after all. We all know what it feels like when we trip over something which causes us to fall and hit the ground running for no reason check the articles. And here’s what we might come up with when we wake up in the morning:
