I cut deeper tonight than I've ever cut before. At one point, I had trouble getting the bleeding to stop. I finally got it under control and patched up. This is scaring me, though, because I've never cut this deep before, and this was with little effort.

(((((((((((((((((fallenangel)))))))))))))))))) Please get your wound seen by a Dr. if need be. Deep wounds can be hard to treat properly with yourself. If you feel yourself escalating I strongly suggest calling your t and getting some help quickly. Do whatever it takes to take care of youreslf. Call 911 if necessary.

Deep cuts can be very dangerous and if you are cutting deeper than normal, then I suggest you really do get some help. Deeper wounds means that one day you could go too deep and really cause some damage (there's danger of hitting nerves and muscle, which REALLY hurts).

Stay Safe

I'm seeing 2 T's to work on this, and I really am trying hard not to let it happen, but sometimes I can't hold off. I don't want to cause this kind of damage to myself, so I really am trying.

amke sure the wounds are seen to and kept clean

when the urge comes can you ring your T and talk it through ? is that a possibility? can you come here before you cut and talk

go to the chat rooms or do somthing that keeps your hands busy ...

anything to keep you occupied.

please take care of you

Most of the time that I get the urge, it's late at night, or even into the early hours of the morning, so it becomes more difficult to reach out. Also, since I live with a roommate, it's hard to do some of the things that are suggested to keep me from cutting.
