Lookback: During my luteal phase or depressive episodes

Intentionally harm myself for a dopamine boost

I engage in self-destructive behaviors like drinking excessive coffee, watching gore, getting into fights, starving myself, cutting my hair, isolating myself, breaking things, and self-harming

What I wish I knew
"That these behaviors would lead to extreme harm and regret"
If I could tell you one thing
"Seek help immediately if you're considering self-destruction for a dopamine boost"
