as much as i try, i cant stop cutting. i thought i had gotten over it. i was good, i had stopped. and then i started again. it's consuming me. it's the only thing that can stop me from falling apart in front of people. or from crying my eyes out every night. i dont know if its a good thing or a bad thing at this point. i feel so defeated. by something i'm causing.
You stopped once and you can do it again, i know this. I understand you feel helpless but you can beat this. Please don’t be afraid to find a therapist or councilor if you think that would help, though you can do this on your own.
It is definitely not a good thing, you have to try to replace cutting with other things. i take showers or sing. do things that make you feel safe and ok. Start trying to change how you talk to your self, thought process is what starts self-harm but it is also what can stop it.
