I dont want to stop cutting... is there something wrong with me? I don't want to die anymore..its just become part of who I am. Its not like I really want to anymore I just dont not want to. does anyone else feel like this?

I 100% understand what you mean. Part of why I don't want (or don't know how) to stop is because I don't know who I am without it, if that makes sense.

i havent cut in over a year but get stoked over getting tatoos, i am getting my next one friday at 3:00! pain here i come!
deleted_user
well i know how you feel its become such a part of my life that losing it seems impossible but i know everyone close to me is scared i will lose control and die i dont want to do that either but i know that it could happen it may seem like you cant do it cuz i know sometimes i cant do it either but all we can do it try one day at a time keep your head up and hang in there

i know the feeling, i dont want to because in way i cant imagine my life without it, its a scarey thought, but i also wish i could stop because i hate seeing the after effects it leaves on my mind and my body.
deleted_user
i do. its like you don't want to stop but then you do and its just so confusing and you don't know what to do.

Yeah I agree with what you're saying. I feel like I'm being forced to give up my best friend. A huge part of myself. I find myself using the excuse that I should love myself, so why can't I love this part? I want to stop because logically I know it's bad for me but at the same time I love that part of me.

I gave my 2 week notice last Friday 13th. Now to join you fine people in a life of leisure and nothing else to do but to look out for myself....is it just me or does that sound pretty boring? My goal was to live to retire and I guess having to take early retirement because of health reasons wasn't exactly the way I had planned things. I just can't stay in that building that is reeking mildew...

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
