Not Good

I cut for a while. It's been 4 1/2 years and I am able to control it now. I have the scars to constantly remind me though. Every time I look at them I feel so much shame. I can only look at is as I am a work in progress.

I hope you can hang in there and overcome the behavior. I think if I can overcome...anyone can.

Hi Sqweak,

Cutting,,,is like having the best sex with a one night stand, and then finding out you have gonorrhea and herpes.
The scars last, and the shame returns, over and over.

I have had the temptations many times, sometimes I cave, sometimes I don't. I am learning to cry, and be okay with it, that's when I want to cut, to stop the crying and the pain. It is a process, and different for everyone. I will say for me what worked was thinking first about the scarring, and pinching myself hard to make me stop the cycle. And letting myself cry, most of the time it works, I'm getting better at it.....I know you can to.......know that YOU are in control, not the cutting.

Best,
Shadowbreath
