I'm 46 and Cut. I use to cut daily I no longer do daily but still too much.. For some reason cutting is thought to be a teenage "thing"??? Makes no sense ... Of course you know cutting isn't a solution altho you do feel better in that moment, its an addiction. Are you currently seeing a Therapist? If so talk to them and learn other ways to cope besides cutting. Feelings of shame or guilt are common after the fact.
Don't beat yourself up, that's useless. Do keep your cuts clean and work on things that will allow you to stop/decrease cutting.
Please be safe if you do cut.. It's easy to cut too deep or the wrong area and something happening far worse.
