ive cut myself for a long time, years, but i just thought it was a frustration thing, which it is dont get me wrong. but recently (like last week and this week) ive been cutting, really impulsively for no reason, im on a high and this shouldnt be happening. i feel like im losing control, so i cut myself to feel more in control, but then i feel even more crazy fo cutting myself, and, you get it, the cycle just continues.
i dont understand why im doing it when im on a high, my depression goes in little cycles of massive downs, and then normal periods (which seem like highs!) and i feel like im doing it more when im happier, am i trying to make myself feel worse, i know i havent got a lot of feelings self worth but i feel bad enough when im feeling down, do i really need to sabotage my highs?
i just feel a bit confused!

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...
Don't feel bad, or crazy, just remember, life didn't come with an instruction book, and not everthing in life is yours to control, trust me on that, you will find that in life you will always re-write the script because life will will always offer you different perspectives, JUST when you think that you have the answers, there are no REAL answers. xx
