self cutting started again
Posted: 10-11-08 01:37am

I've been cutting for 6 months now. The first time I'm not really sure what happened. I just got this really full feeling. Like I might burst. And I cut. It wasn't that bad at all the first couple of times. I'd always get this overwhelming feeling. But the cuts were shallow. Then it got more intense. My then boyfriend made me crazy. Crazy sad. And I couldn't stop cutting. But then this one time I just cut because I wanted to. Slash, slash, slash across my thigh. The worst was when we broke up. I slashed up both arms really bad. But then I stopped for about a month. Then last night I was about to go to sleep and I just got up and cut again. Then tonight, nothing was really going on, but I really cut my arm again. And then my thigh. Then I took a safety pin and I carved the word b*tch into my leg. It hurt a lot but I couldn't stop. I don't know how to stop. I'm not even sure if I can. What's wrong with me?

Hi shattered. You're not alone. Hundereds of thousands of people cut themselves in order to provoke a physical reaction that can help take away emotional pain. Do you want to find help? If you give me the name of your city, I can see what treatment centers are near you.

Don't worry-help is near.
