I think I need to tell him how I feel that at night I turn into a different person. I did tell him at my last appointment that I don't want him to see or ask about my cuts because I feel shame. At the same time I want him to see and ask. I guess I need to know that he cares. He reminded me that he isn't judging me.

Sounds like you have a good therapist, but you do need to remember that therapists care but need to remain somewhat detached.
And you aren't unlovable or a failure. I know you can't accept that right now, but it needed saying.
