My boyfriend hid my scissors that I always use. I want to cut so badly. I have access to all the other knives and scissors but I only ever use those when I'm SUPER desperate to cut. I'm luckily not that bad. I just want my scissors back so I can cut away my feelings and my fat.

I know how you feel my husband has locked up my meds so I can't take too may of them. They are in a combination lock and I can't get to them. We had another lock box but I was able to pop that one open. I can't get this one open. My daughter has threatend to come over and take all my sharp things away if I don't stop cutting. My knives aren't sharp so now I use disposeable razors.They can't stop me from hurting myself in one way or another. I will find a way to take too many pills or something. I just have voices that keeps telling me to do these things. I really need therapy but just haven't gone yet. Don't know if I will or not.

Therapy can help a lot. I know how it feel to have things taken away, my parents have my meds locked up and cant get them. But is what they are doing to help me, they dont want to upset me just help me.

Im sorry, my ex husband used to do the same things. But he always traded me something better. Hed take away anything that could hurt me then he would hold me really tight til the urges passed. He loved me..and I know that now..but it was too late. He didn't want to babysit me anymore. We should think more of the stress we put on our loved ones instead of getting mad that they are helping...

Hiddenangel, I'm not mad at all. i gave him the scissors because I knew I would hurt myself again. The depressed part of me just wants them back.

Yh I know how u feel, my mum has hid the scissors and knifes, so I can't cut. What keeps me going is the thought of what I'm doing is upseting my mum. I'm so close to doing it, but instead I go out and exercise, or if it's at night, I either go and wtch something funny on t.v or I take a walk with some of my friends. Music also helps me, try n find other things that you like, and when u feel the uncontrollable urge to cut, do something that will take your mind off of it. Your boyfriend has hid them because he loves you, and doesnt want you to hurt yourself and punsih yourself any more than you have. Your beautiful and not fat, so please try and get some help with this like counselling or a phycatrist, I did, and it's helped me calm down the feelings that I have. If u wnna 2lk feel free 2 add me n 2lk, or msg me. :).x
