I started self-injuring when I was about 17 or 18. I am now 25, married, a graduate student of psychology, work full-time in the mental health field, and about to buy a first home. And I still self-injure. Sometimes I feel so ashamed and childish that I deal with things at 25, the same as I did at 17. I also have no urge to stop. I figure, well it's not killing me, I'm not doing it to kill myself, so who cares? I don't even attempt to try to stop. The scars bothers me. I notice them way after the fact, though. I don't think about them as a consequence when I'm in the act of doing it. What I wonder is, how many on this forum are adults who self-injure?
Thanks,
