Some people need to educate themselves

Yep I hanged myself in my closet, but the moment I was on there I was like nope and well I survived. I also cut my wrist and stabbed my legs to cope with the negative feelings I was experiencing (I don't do that anymore tho).
However, I realized that there are a lot of people out there who think all survivors of self harm are/ were suicidal, and would tell them to try harder in committing suicide/ do it right etc. I mean yes many people who self harm are indeed suicidal, but many of us still want to live, or at least try to live. I usually cut myself whenever I'm having a serious anxiety attack, or when I know I'll start to dissociate heavily, cuz it (I'm still not sure if it's the pain or the colour of blood tho,) helps pull me back into reality and helps me stay calm. And no I wasn't trying to kill myself.
And to those who tell survivors of self harm to try harder to kill themselves: I don't care if you're just as depressed. This isn't what you should ever say even if someone wanted to die through cutting their own wrists. I'm not gonna wish you dead but if you're not gonna try to understand these people then please just mind your own damn business
*Still, self harm is absolutely not recommended: I pushed myself to exercise everyday, and as yall know just getting yourself to move is an extremely hard thing to do especially when you're depressed. Depression isn't gonna disappear just because you exercised, but trust me it's totally worth it and you're gonna feel a lot better, even just for a short while
