I know how you are...I'm like that now...My wounds are infected and you think that would stop me but I just want to buy another razor so I can keep cutting, yes the infection is a big thing, but I really just want to keep cutting, people have sugested to me to put ice on my skin, it burns but it's not cutting, slowly to get yourself off of it I guess, but I would try it, I ahven't tried it yet but I intend to...message me if you want to talk

Have you tried counseling and meds? They aren't for everyone but it can help. Talking to someone whose opinion you value. They might freak at first, but maybe it would help.

I think it would be advantageous if you looked deep within yourself and tried to find the reason for your cutting behaviour. If you can tackle and remove the source, you might be able to overcome harming yourself.

I asked this of someone else. Why want to stop? I love it, my scars, the blood tears, everything. I don't intend to stop.

    I miss traveling with my husband. Has anyone found a specific site regarding cruising for widow/widowers or any sightseeing trips. Not interested in being with couples and kids,,,I realize a cruise ship will have a portion size of families and couples, but perhaps they also put together a part of the cruise ship for groups of widows/widowers????

    A friend sent this to me..As far as I can see, grief will never truly end.It may become softer overtime, more gentleand some days will feel sharp.But grief will last as long as Love does - ForeverIt's simply the way the absence of your loved onemanifests in your heart. A deep longing accompaniedby the deepest Love some days. The heavy fog mayreturn and the next day, it may recede.Once again, it's...
