I cut myself at work yesterday to achieve some normalcy , first cut since 2009 and it felt good , which is kind of scary. I can't believe I did that but the stress was getting to me.

Ohh I am sorry you slipped dear. I ve been trying to control that urge for a few months now! The more I remember how good it felt the more i am losing it.

You have to not let stress get to you. I do know it is easier said than done. But what I do is I distract myself into something else all togather. I am slowly running outta options now. But I do know that isn't the right path to go down.

**hugs**

Try not to make a habit out of it dear. We all need to be strong. Prayers you way.

Maybe it's just me but I'll never undersatnd why someone would cut themselves. I don't want an explanation either. There's no reason in the world to cut and scar yourself that would satisfy.

I have been where you are and slipped a time or two. Don't give up but don't give in. It isn't worth it in the long run. Just fight your hardest not to do it again. Prayers and blessing for you!!
