Why do i want to stop cutting so badly but yet i keep doing it. Its almost like i like to do it... It makes me feel better. It tells myslef i am still alive.. and i like punishing myslef for what happend to me... How do i do it? How do i stop? The urges are happening very frequently but why? I have no one to talk about this with... I am so very alone
After i cut i feel so stupid but i still do it. My arm looks ugly and i have a banquet to go to in 2 weeks where i am suppose to waer a strappless dress so much for that man do i ever suck!

hey hun, i know excatly where you are coming from. the problem with s/h is that it is adictive, it makes us feel better so we keep doing it. is there anyone you can tell about this, maybe a friend, family or doctor. maybe things wouldnt seem so out of control if you had a better support system.

I really wish there was someone i could tell about this but there isnt... I have no friends i trust, My parents are mean and they are too busy arguing with each other to notice me!! The rest of my family like aunts and uncles and stuff would tekk my parents and i would be in HUGE trouble. I want to tell my therapist but i am scared she will not like me then and she will be mad. I have absolutly no support systm.

For me? I was the same. Couldn't stop. It slipped away as my kids came and my jobs soared. But then one day 20 yrs laer it happened again. I searched myself all the way through. My conclusion is. When I felt under attach I was so scared of the mental torture that I thought if I hurt myself they will quit hurting me. Maybe they'll feel sorry and take it all back. For my own it got my heart and mind immediATEly away from that current meantal beating in my mind or from someone else. Still nobody cared. I could easily fall back into this at any time right now. Lifes sucks for me. No one loves me. I have no best friend or anybdy. I am married and as long as he doesn't start on me I can maintain. It's like walking on broken glass and at his toatal control. I am right thier with you. Get something you can love and hold it tight talk to it and never let anyone hurt it and it will never let anyone hurt you. Then try to grab it instead of a blade.

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
