I've been cutting for about 5 years now and every time i try to stop the urges just get stronger each time. I'm not sure what to do now, I hate having all these scars on my arms and having to explain myself to people when they ask (which is annoying, cause isnt it obvious what they're from?) I feel like its going to be with me all my life.. I went a month without cutting, which is the shortest ive gone, and the other day i just couldnt stop myself. Thinking about having to stop makes me so terrified, im not sure what id do if i couldnt self injur. It seems to be the only thing that can really calm my thoughts when everything is so hectic and messed up. I've tried alot of things to try and stop, but it doesnt seem enough. what do you guys do to make the urges go away or quiet down at least? I need to stop this but i just dont know how..
