Please tell me whats going on with me😓

Hi, I’m a 17-year-old soon-to-be college student, and I’m the oldest of five kids. Ever since I can remember, I’ve had a bad temper, and sometimes I can’t help hurting myself. But when I’m not angry or irritated and I accidentally hurt myself, I cry and say sorry to myself (I know that sounds weird, but yeah, I love myself).

When I’m angry, irritated, or when my mom is scolding me, I sometimes punch or slap myself really hard, and I also throw things sometimes. I don’t hurt myself with knives, razors, or anything like that — it’s mostly punching or slapping myself. 🥹

I really want to improve myself and maybe try therapy because I’ve seen that a lot of people with similar situations get help from it. But I can’t afford it on my own, and I’m scared to tell my mom. My temper has also been getting really bad these past few weeks.

I’ve learned some breathing exercises, and sometimes they work. I also like squishing my stuffed toys when I’m irritated because I like the feeling. I even bought a sugar squishy, but my youngest brother broke it. 😓😓

So yeah, please give me advice that can help me improve my behavior 🥹 I promise I’ll take your advice seriously as long as it helps me so I won’t feel like a burden anymore.
