There might be one near you and they will understand the feelings you're going through. They have been the most supportive family for me. I went to the chemical addiction group because they were the ones who understood what I was going through. Cutting is like a drug for most of us and you really need the support. If you can't find a Celebrate Recovery you may want to consider going to Alcoholics Anonymous meetings. Most of them will understand your feelings too.
I'm so sorry that people who you should be able to trust are letting you down. Hang in there.

Thank you I will most definetly look into that program. Its funny that you mention the AA meetings because I am reading a book on the 12 steps right now. Although I dont always understand it I try to make the best I can out of these books. By the way I dont know if you have any type of religious background but there is a christian book called "Inside A Cutters Mind." Its all about how to help a cutter and to also try to understand the why and along those things. Just thought it might be useful. It has really helped me to get where I am now....in a positive way. Yes I decided to talk to my pastor about some of these things a little while ago. Well have a good night and thank you for the psoitiveness.
