I had to have a lung biopsy, and I have cancer. A very rare form that doesn't have any standard treatment. There just isn't a lot of case history for this. It is epithelioid hemangio endothelioma. The cancer support group doesn't talk every day. I can understand why. I'm waiting for the oncologist to call back for an appointment, and will hear in the next few days. Who knew. Ha!

I'm sorry to hear its getting worse but ur not mad ur just hurting inside and dont know how to express it in a so called "healthy way" i have never burnt myself on candle wax because to me a candle is a relaxing thing especially if its scented. Y not try and see if u can look at candles as relaxing
I drip the wax onto my wrists, not dipping in, but dripping the wax sometimes helps when I want to cut.
before i cut i used to love candels but it's only recent that i have begun to burn my self
I haven't done it in a long time, but yeah, I used to do that, but I never saw it as an si. I just thought it looked/ felt cool. Sorry to hear things are going bad for you. Just keep writing and talking until the wave of an urge has passed.
