believe me cutting is not the answer. You need to come on here and talk it out with us, once you talk about it you will feel much better, and will not feel the need to cut.

do you feel safe enough to go to your foster mother and talk to her about how sad you are? I just wish I could hold you and hug you and tell you its going to be ok. We love you and want the very best for you, you know.

when I feel like I am going to cut, I call my therapist and we talk about what is triggering me to cut. You should talk about what is making you want to cut to us. I am sure you feel better once you talk to us.
