Will anything help?

I self-harm, have depression, two personalities, and hate everything about myself. But one of my personalities won’t let me listen or take advice. I read articles about how to stop harming and depression, but she won’t let me believe what they say. She tells me everyone is lying, they all say the same scripted things. “It’ll get better” So I can’t get help, I can’t stop.

Maybe you need something more subtle than "advice" or this site. If you can think things through and figure out why the reasons you cut or get depressed aren't based in reality, then you don't need to listen to anyone else. Understanding yourself isn't advice, it's just something everyone tries to do. Question yourself. Question your other personality. Really think things through. You're right that you can't change anything until you want to change. Including the self-defeating side of you.Of course, this may all get ignored. But hey, half of you is trying. Also I don't know anything about multiple personalities. Sorry. Feel free to message me with rants/corrections. Unless you meant it figuratively, in which case feel free to message me and laugh at me.
