Hi Mark,
I do think that some counseling is in order. When a person is a danger to him/herself or others, it is time to take action. Many people resort to inflicting physical pain upon themselves in order to forget or lessen the impact of the emotional pain that they are feeling. Some people find that they become addicted to self mutilation during times of emotional distress. Set some small goals for yourself (driving doesn't count). Go for walks, start a new hobby, do some volunteer work, etc. You will feel better if you stop thinking about what you can't do and start thinking of what you can do! Take care.

I've gotten so frustrated since I found out that my driving suspension would last at least another 4 months (if not forever), that I've turned my body into a scratching post. The scratches are mostly on my hands (hey, I can't use them for driving) and my arms, but I have plenty more skin to scratch to the point of infection and scarring. It's gottne to the point where I feel proud to have started an area bleeding.
Does anyone think that this warrants a visit to a doctor?
Mark
