Maybe it doesn't feel helpful and like you're making it worse because everything feels so terrible...but maybe it does help?

When I was super depressed in my teens I listened to a lot of angsty music. NIN's "Hurt" was like rolling around a sticky all-consuming mass of depression, it didn't feel good but something about the song hit me so hard. It was like I could identify my misery and it was cathartic to sing the song and feel like I could actually express a pain I couldn't before.

Also, for the majority of my life I hated scary movies and roller coaster rides. Thought I was a lame-o scaredy cat/chicken/child afraid of their own shadows kid, but as an adult I had to come to the realization that people like the thrill of being scared by watching movies or riding roller coasters because it was a safe way to confront fear.
I'd spent my entire life in survive mode, every feeling of fear felt real and yeah, that's why I was a lame-o scaredy cat as a kid and can still be as an adult. I had to learn to reassure myself that I wasn't in danger to be OK with scary movies.

Maybe your coping skills feel like throwing salt at your wound, but maybe it has some benefits to it too.
Whatever you do, I hope you're safe. ♡
