I think the first thing you have to figure out is why you cut. What happened to you that makes you feel the need to release the pain? There are hotlines you can find online that will help you with this. It is anonymous..

cutting only hides the pain for a short while until you cut again. I agree you need to identify why...although you kind of told us why, you also told someone which is what you thought would help but did it really? The only real problem with the cutting is it is only hurting the person who is already hurting. So how do you start the healing? I need to say at this point I am NOT a cutter, I stumbled on to this site while trying to heal a pain in my heart. My problem is finding the someone to really trust. I am usually the supporter, the one who helps others through but who do I trust to help me? I'm learning that person is also me. I have to realize that it is okay to feel alone with myself and that I can be the friend that I need to get through. Once i stop looking for others to fix it for my I find that it really is something I have to fix for myself. I hope this helps...I know it is long but I almost needed it for me to solve my own problem which is how i wandered on to this site in the 1st place. i hope you find another way, maybe you could help others with a similar problem and build your friend base from there.
