Hey everyone - I'm new on here. My story is pretty much this: I self-injured for about 1 year before anyone found out. I did it because I was depressed. I went to therapy and was put on Zoloft. (I am no longer going to a therapist because I started college in a town 4-5 hours away from home and never took the time out to find one.) The last time I cut was October, so a little over four months ago. I have been pretty good in staying away from it, but I still find I get weak and get strong urges to do so. Sometimes the only mental prevention is my boyfriend. Sometimes I think I am stronger than I actually am. Just now, I figured I would be fine reading something that had the "trigger" symbol, but I started reading, and my heart began racing with that urge. I am very glad I came upon this site and this forum. I think it will be wonderful to have help when I need it as well as providing help for fellow members.

Later.
