This whole incident with my Mom is triggering me. It's making me want to harm myself. I want to harm myself to test if my Mom really cares about me.
If I die, then she'll be sorry.
I think I'm evil.

I just went looking for meds to take more than the recommended amount of. I can't find anything dangerous.
I have a bunch of prozac and celexa, but it would be just plain stupid to take them all because they are safe in overdose. I'd just be wasting money.
I hate this. I hate feeling this way. I need to do something. I'm going to take more than the recommended amount of vitamins. I just need to do *something*.
I just took one. I'm just wasting vitamins. Ugh.
I'm going to distract myself. I'm going to read some posts.
I hate feeling this.

You need to call the distress centre, or your Pdoc Deneb.
Did you ask your Pdoc about how to contact her outside of office hours?

I realized my Mom does care about me, a lot. I don't know why I switch from thinking my Mom cares about me too much to not caring about me at all.
My pdoc told me to talk to my parents when I get upset.
I'm going to practice mindfulness.

I think distraction can indeed be a useful coping mechanism at times like these. Preferably something totally different and engrossing: funny movie, bike ride, a positive book, an expedition.
