Angry Hat (original) (raw)
I just read a triad of stories revolving around people - and their friends - who have a behavior patern known as SI or SH -- Self Injury or Self Harm. SI is, as one of the characters explained, The intentional cutting or burning or causing of pain to one's body to bring balance into the world as a method of coping with depression. two of these stories were marked as trigger stories -- that is, if you were, at one point, into SI, and you read these stories, certain scenes may make you want to do it again.
I have never been into SI, and, to my knowledge, noone I know has either. I am, howeveer, an empath. I also tend to feel emotions really well. I cry when I watch Bambi or Dumbo.
when I read the trigger scenes, which included graphic descriptions of SI, I not only felt like doing what was in the scece, I also felt what was happenning in a scene.
There is also the fact that seeeing someone stoned makes me want to be stoned, seeing someone kiss makes me want to kiss, basically anything that other people do makes me want it.
I don't like this about myself, because it is selfish and dangerous. I also don't know what to do about it.
If you have it, I want it
But I won't take it unless you give it freely
I'd make a great vampire. Only driinking from the wiling.
