How do i deal with this?

Hi im not gonna say my age but im in the early adolescence. Now to get to the main topic throught rhis past week ive been getting thoughts about self harm, im taking a autism test throught the next weeks as ive been trying to get tested for the past few years. During the first questionare that the people gave me to fill out they talked alot about self harm wich made me worried because i kept thinking about memories i wasent sure jf they wete self harm. Fast forward to the in person questiond they kept bringing up self harm and to one question "have you had self harm thoughts" and i replied with "yeah but their minor i really only get them at night and its only about maybe me hurting myself but i dont really want them" they asked " what kind of things do you think about doing" i said " its complcated i dont really know". (That happend so again for me to note i dont get self harm thoughts during the day rather their at night where i have nothing to do i cringe at the thought of me even writing this.) (Also if i havent said sorry for my grammar) anyways i love knives i have 2 swiss army knives but i get worried at night so ill end up hiding my knives so incase i try to do something i really dont want to (thats if i even do it) than their hiden and i cant really get to it since their in a really deep drawer. I honestly cant think of anything else to write i might add more in the comments but i really need help or atleast for someone to try and tell me if its just the "depression phase".

I cant make schematics for the life of me so heres the entire wiring also if you rebuild it watch out fot gfci outlets and dont run it for more than 1 min at a time it may trip them. It can also light up a plasma ball i find that cool

First is this even a tesla coil? I think its a solid state one but correct me if im wrong. Second if it is one what would be a better design i literly made this up on the spot with no designs or help from anything. It only lights things up when i hold them to it and barley light up flourescent lamps when not held. The thing intself is a nst 3kv 30ma ballast one wire connected to the dr pepper can the other connected to a wire going down into a glass jar thats inside the van abd turned like 3 times and connected to another wire from the ballast. It also sounds like a iron core transformer or a microwave
