06-30-08- i wrote a new topic called slowly recovering. id been cut free for a while. Im sad to say that as of 10-23-08 im no longer cut free i feel so dumb for doing it but its like the first time all over again its all i think about. I want help i don't want to do this anymore i was doing so good, but now im just setting back hiding my wounds and hoping no one sees them and asks about them. I cut the top of my feet no one ever sees me without socks and shoes i feel scared that if i ask for help or talk to someone about it that they will talk to my boyfriend and i love him more than anything and i dont want to see him worry or anything someone please help

My friend just recently starting cutting herself, hence me searching through this forum. I feel if you are harming your body in any way, it is a MAJOR cry for help. If you feel too embarassed to tell your bf, then don't ,but please seek professional help immediately. Perhaps your primary physican could make some suggestions and if you don't like anyone they suggest, keep looking until you find someone who can help you.

Keep the faith!

Hey hunni...

I know how you feel about going into relapse, but don't let it get you down... it's a slip-up... You've gone SO well to go so long without cutting. You must remember what helped you to stop last time? Could you apply that again?

PM me anytime..

know how you feel.
i just relapsed...literally about 45 seconds ago. and i hate myself for it. i had gone about a month and a half without cutting. and i was so proud about myself. i felt so good. but then stuff happens, you know? i just wanted to let you know you werent alone. we're going through the same thing. just keep up hope. and know that ill be thinking of you, and ill be right there with you "in spirit"--i know...that sounds dumb. but its true. much love.
