Don't feel guilty....this is an illness plus a way we cope with stress. Your friend was trying to get you to stop.....in a guilty way but exactly she made it worse. You have to try one day at a time to fight the urge.....try something else then cut...elastics...ice cubes...on the wrists.....or going to see a shrink....I see mine every two weeks or one....depending on my moods. I have to say I think of si daily....but I keep fighting and I've beable to keep from doing it.....what really stopped me was the look of my four kids....wided eyed and scared! But, I still have to fight don't to every day....so you can to....betty
