But talking through what is going on inside you that is driving you to do this to yourself may be your best chance of putting it to rest once and for all. I hope you can. My best wishes to you...
That's what I'm really afraid of. I didn't used to it before, I think its my alternative to cutting. I started to do it last night again but then went into the bathroom and cut and it stopped me in my tracks? I was done after the cutting.

Why I do it is a bit harder to pinpoint but I know its because emotionally I'm very distressed and certain things others do set me off...I might mention to my therapist that I started seeing and see what she says. I haven't mentioned anything deeper to her yet (she's very new) but I think its gotta happen at some point.
