it is interesting to observe what triggers you into cutting. You seem able to cope well with the high stress involved with studying but seem to have a weak ability to cope with the human assessment of that study. Also you seem not to cope well when given a ration of...well you know...from "friends". So it seems inter-personal stress is your pitfall when it comes to SI. Knowing what you are weakest in coping with can help you take steps in protecting yourself from self injury. Easier said then done but it is a starting point.

I am glad that Rapunzel suggested e-therapay. That sounds like a great option for many people who just can't do therapy other wise. I hope you will investigate it and let us know how it works so we can pass the word on to other people.
Take care,
