I dont know the answer to this ,,,,
I myself cut ,, Its always at nite ,, nitetime is the worst for me .. if i take my sleep meds and they work Im safe ...If for some reason I fight them and wind up staying awake and continue to overthing things like I do all day long thats when I find myself cutting ..

My husband cant handle what I do to myself and threatens divorce and yells and screams .. I dont EXPECT him to understand... but my cutting is not as deep as it was back in june when I signed into the hospital because I cut so bad I needed sutures ... As I said I dont expect him to understand ,, but I just wish he could understand Im working hard as hell in therapy to deal with ALL my issues and gawd knows I have plenty of them.

I wish there was simple answer to how to stop self injury but I think its just part of the journey most of us have trying to find a safe more stable happy life .

Manicminer ,, Please make sure your T or Pdoc knows what is going on. My T is aware of my cutting . I dont hide anything from him even tho its so hard to be completly honest at times ,,but its for our own good to be honest so we can learn to cope better and feel better about ourselves.

Wishing you peace and Love
