At first i was only starving myself for days at a time. but now i am starting to cut... I am trying not to but it is so hard to stop. i don't really know what to do anymore. i can't tell my girlfriend cause she said if i did it then she would kill herself and i know she would. It's killing me to not be able to tell her. I want her to know everything about me. The fact that I can't is making me want to cut more... I could really use some advice...
PM me if you want to talk.
Also, it sounds like your girlfriend has some problems too. And I mean that in the nicest way possible. She shouldn't kill herself because you cut. Do you think maybe she just said that as a "threat" type of deal to scare you into not cutting? Or, Do you you think she is really suicidal? Do you feel suicidal?
And with the cutting, do you know what is making you want to cut? Like, what happens right before you cut?
@LoveAlice: i can tell how weak im getting when i starve myself so i dont let myself get that weak but i dont mind the feel of it. the reason i want to starve myself is i dont feel like im worth as much as the food is. i know my girlfriend has problems as well and i have been helping her with them. i know that it isn't a threat. thats what i do sometimes and she wouldn't only use it as a threat. we are both suicidal and have been for a while but just being together is keeping us alive. the first time i cut i was really really sad and then my girlfriend told me she had cut again so then i cut and then after that i dont know why i did it.
