Like the title says, I am ashamed of myself. I have cuts on: my shoulder, knee, leg, hand, and arm. Some that I don't even remember. I did all these cuts with my finger nail which I cut slightly an used it like a razor. I am so ashamed of myself right now, why can't I just control myself? Why can't I be normal? Why can't I get over something that doesn't even exist? It is pointless for me to be depressed and cut myself for no apparent reason at all. I feel so stupid feeling bad for myself when there is nothing to feel bad about. I need to stop messing up everything.

Do you really want to be normal? I don't have a clue what normal is, I want you to be happy, I want that for me too. I would rather be happy and an individual, than misserable and "normal"

These problems exist for one perpose only. For us to learn something from them. If we can all do that then, It will be for our good.

As for the increased cutting, I'm so sorry that you feel that way. But there is a reason why you are doing it. It may be Barried inside of you but, you can find out through professional help. Stay strong, and be strong in the days to come.

You are where you are for many reasons. Why are you telling yourself that there are no reasons for you to feel bad?
