When I am severely depressed and in bed, i do have self-destructive habits. I stay in bed for days on end, don't shower, don't change my clothes, do any housework, etc. My meds. have been changed recently and I have a wonderful psychiatrist. I can email him anytime and he will get back to me within 2 days. With the change in meds I stayed out of bed and out of hospital this past winter. Hopefully the upcoming winter will be good for me as well. I do use a SAD light in the winter and that helps also.

Short answer is yes I'm also self destructive

Longer answer is I have levels of Anxiety and Depression I am comfortable living with....when I get really low it's like I have blinkers on and can't function and make sound decisions...I find change to be terrifying and will continue down the wrong path to avoid change.

Therapy and and medication has helped alot

If you find the answer let me know

I used to cut myself and do a lot of other very self destructive behaviors but I kind of grew out of them with growth and age . As I grow as a person I realize what is happening realizing it will pass. It doesn’t mean it makes it any easier but just makes you stronger as a person

I notice I get angry or dismissive where I simply shut down. But no other self destructive actions other than suicide attempts.

I shut down emotionally when I hit my highest stress levels, sometimes have suicidal thoughts, over or under eat or don't sleep. I'm not on meds but do pray and am relieved in my walk with Jesus. He kept me from killing myself years ago and when I call on a need for peace I get it. I have broken days, but He knows that and loves me just the same.
