A note from the Community Support Team:

We decided that, although the first part of this thread was still on topic for Psychotherapy, the replies beyond here were on a different topic. What used to be the last 8 posts in this thread are now the beginning of a new thread (with the same title) in the Self Injury forum.

You may wish to post replies to either or both threads, depending on whether your reply is more about therapy or about SI.

Jexa, I hope you won't mind a bit of commuting. I hope you're feeling better by the time you read this.
