I think I'm ready

Right now, I think I could be ready to at least try to give up cutting. I think I've come to a point where I can admit I'm doing no good to anyone. I think I've come to a point where I don't need it so much anymore. I think that maybe today's the day to turn over a new leaf, start getting on the right track.
I say this, and I'm sadder than I've been in a long time. I feel like I'm betraying the blade I've held dear for so long. I fear I'll be lonely without it always there for me.
I'm scared to death. I don't even want to think about it. I don't want to imagine life without it. I don't want to.
But for now, I think maybe it's time.

Wow I hope you keep up wth the positive thought about stopping cutting :)
Thats really good
It seems the more I try to stop,the more I end up cutting.I'm not focusing on stopping anymore,I'm going to try and not focus on the cutting at all...If I cut,then it's just one time and I will move on...I need to think like that
Good luck *hugss*
