I was having a chat with my boyf whom i love very much last night. And it was just about the top 10 things that are important to him.
and after telling me, he asked me the same question. and it was then that after thinking about it, i realised that i feel like i cant have anything that I would care about alot bcz everything important always gets taken away from me. normally by force and brutally by someone i trusted, normally my brother.
It made me realise how much pain im harbouring, and how empty my life is. it made me feel bad and gave me a shocking wake up call to how much iv been pretending to be ok.
and that made me feel guilty too. it hit me like a slap in the face just how much i havent been being me. and how i havent been beeing me because iv been desperately trying to be something that my family will love.
I feel so empty knowing that, that it makes me want to cut. does anyone have any advice? or been through anything similar?
I just wanna stop being sad, and only knowing how to deal with my emotions through self harm. Iv been cut free for 4 months, 6 months before that. I want to stop, but dont seem to have anything to replace the coping mechanism with. Help!

I dont see any good in myself... but i know that you are all right. If i cut i will feel terrible, bcz not only will i have cut again after so much determination, but i will feel like a dirty failure for it. and thats what hit me the worst last time.
