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.

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
