I have had this sick twisted obsession with cutting for about 4-5 years now. Anytime I get extremely angry or upset or overwhelmed I feel like cutting, like that's all I need. I've wanted to die the past 6 years... but anyways, last night I was extremely overwhelmed by my grandfather, my boyfriend was pissing me off and then my brother and dad were playing to blame game and getting mad at me cause I just couldn't make myself go take care of my grandfather. Nobody cared that I was rocking back and forth bawling my eyes out.... I went and took a picture off my wall, took the screw out and sat on my bed. I ended up scrapping about a 1/2 in square into my leg, I sat there a good 10 minutes constantly scrapping. I didn't feel any of it... not till about an hour later.... it got rid of my "need" to get a razor blade and start slashing my leg, which is what I really wanted to do, and I was finally able to calm down.
What do I do now? Is this gonna become a physical obsession rather then the mental obsession that I had before? Please help!!!!

While at the store last week with my mom and sister, we alwere standing in the checkout line and a couple of ladies stood so close behind us that if I moved an inch I would bump them. There were blue circles on the floor to stand on to maintain six feet of distance. They were making me so nervous. Even before covid started I get nervous when people stand too close. I didn't say anything to them...

I still don't know what the cause is.... I wasn't sexually abused as a child or anything. I do know that this ain't the first time that I've hurt myself now that I think of it but the other times were just to see what it felt like not cause I was angry or upset... It seems like the more I try to work on my problems the more problems I seem to have...
