Thank you everyone for your support and information. I have a temporary case manager whomwas going over my goals that my normal case manager set for me. Of course, one was self-harm. I explained that I had an isdue with that because she had threatened me with the hospital if she thought even that I would cut. She then asked me when the last time was that I cut, and I admitted to her it was the Tuesday before last. She got me to admit my shrink had riggered me. I told her I did not want to see him again until my required monthly visit and thst I would discuss. With this with him then.

The norm has always been to mske me see hin immediately upon discovery of the cuts. But they did not push. I know he was made aware of it, but I was not forced to see him. Only had to let nursing see it, which is the norm as well.
I was so relieved about not having to see him, I was able to do okay the rest of the day.

I know I have to face my shrink, but I will do it when I'm at a point I can collect all my thoughts and talk rationally. It seems as though they are going to respect that.
