Hello,
I just wanted some advice on what to do about this. So sorry it's long but please read?
Prior to a job interview, I was called in for a work trial for a kitchen team member position (ugh, the word 'team'! ) . So I went to it and I was so scared but there was only two other kitchen workers (both male) so then I thought it was going to be okay. But I was so nervous and I knew they could tell. They were being really nice too but I must have looked like such a miserable idiot to them, that's why I feel so bad. It was just basic catering stuff they were teaching me but I just couldn't relax and was too scared to ask questions. Everytime I was asked to do something, I started shaking from head to toe or I would start breathing fast and it was obvious to them. I felt so stupid. I couldn't even finish the trial and I just had to get out of that kitchen so I told them that I couldn't do it, it just wasn't for me and I also told them (don't know what I was thinking) about how I get like this in social situations (told them a bit TOO much, I fear). They said I was free to go so I did and just felt so angry at myself about how I couldn't even do such a simple thing and I couldn't stop thinking that the two other workers were probably laughing at me while I walked home.
On my way home, I knew there was just one thing I wanted to do. It just seems the usual, automatic response that follows a horrible situation. As sson as I got home, I cut and cut my thighs until I couldn't feel a thing anymore. The blood wouldn't stop and my body was shaking but I felt good while the sting kept going. And then I woke up today feeling disgusting and guilty as ever.
I don't have any friends but I have a cousin I am quite close to. I have told her about my SH but she thinks I haven't done it for like a year now. Should I tell her it started again? I don't really want to unburden my problems on her, it's not fair. Please, please has anyone been in this situation and what else can I do? I'm sick of the fact that I love the pain and I can't stop the SH. What can I do?
Thank you
