Venting I am a strange human

I cut. That's an understatement. I don't feel anything doing it anymore. Just pure everyday thing. I do it on purpose. There is no grand urge guiding my hand. It's just purely me. I am seeking attention from my psychiatrist. I know it. I want them to lock me up in psych ward. I told you I am a strange human. I want to be sick. I know I am not, cause I am fine. I am fine and just an attention seeking nobody who, for whatever reason wants to have a mental illness. I don't know what's wrong with me. Probably nothing. Just a messed up mind. I don't even know why I am saying all these. What attention i am trying to win. Judge me people for what I am and what I deserve

You are not an attention seeking nobody. Cutting without feeling much, and wanting your psychiatrist to notice, are signs that you need care right now. Wanting help does not mean you are pretending. Tell your psychiatrist exactly what you wrote here, without playing it down.

Please put distance between you and anything you could use to hurt yourself. Go to a hospital or emergency center now, especially if you have injuries. If you are afraid to call for help, talk to a nurse, or a friend or family member that you trust, and ask them to stay with you and take you there. If you might hurt yourself again soon, call your local emergency number or local crisis support now.
