I have been cutting since i was like...10 and its been my safety net. i never do it where you can see it but it hurts and leaves scares that constantly reminds me that there is something wrong with me where i cant fix it.

I just recently found to fa good therapist. If you would like any advice, I would suggest finding someone who specializes in eating disorders, even if that isn't a problem for you. ED therapists see lots of self harm behavior, and I think they are really good at handling it (at least in my small personal sampling). Hang in there!

Hugs,
