Something that you said struck me as...disturbing I guess. "I want to be a good girl, I don't want to hurt myself anymore." I, myself, have said these words before. I guess what I would like to know is why does hurting ourselves make us bad? Yes, I know that it is not the best thing for us to do and it would be in our very best interest to knock it off but I have to ask myself if referring to myself as "bad" for doing this just increases the need to do it because I am a bad person inside. What would happen if we stepped away from the idea of being "good" or "bad" and stepped toward the concept that we are merely humans making not so great choices?
Just thinking out loud,
Carrie
