I attempt to....i say i'm not really interested in doing such and such.

i know sometimes in life you have to do things that you don't want to in order to make the situation easier. And i know i should do it.
But i'm always doing it.

I'm being selfish.

I cut because it is me telling myself to put all my emotions and needs to one side and be what is expected.
Cutting tells me to go away because i'm not needed.
I was referring to this Abby. There is a reason why you don't want to do what they want you to do and that this needs to be understood.
