yeh i have done that a few times..but now if i feel low b4 drinking i wont drink because i know what will happen. or if i start to feel like that while drinking i stop and keep myself surrounded by people.
i dont drink alone anymore as being drunk and by myself causes problems.

I was drunk once and was told some really bad news so I was distraught and went home and ended up cutting. Because I was drunk I couldn't feel it as much and cut really deep several times on my leg. It bled loooads and I had to go and sit in the bath so I didn't get as much blood on the carpet. Was pretty bad but no need to stitches or anything.

Ive done it a few times, i fel like my feelings are amplified when im drunk, not that i wouldnt have cut if i had been sobre, that still would have happend. I thinkits important to remember things can seem worse when your drunk x

I've done it a few times. You have to be careful with drinking. It's easy to go too deep when you are drunk.

I know exactly how you feel, I first cut when drunk and sometimes I create a whole enviroment with alcohol, a blade and a towel it's like a ritual, although not one I would recommend. Please try not to drink, don't end up like me x

The two times I have had to go to the er cuz I cut too deep I was either drunk or severly pissed off when I cut. I try not to do that any more.

that is when i do it the most. I usually find things to take my mind off the bad stuff when im sober but when im drunk i cant stop thinking about the bad stuff and i cut.
so your not alone on that one.

    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...
