I was upset and freaking out. So tried strong pain pills. A smoke. A lie down. And still was NOT ok. So bottom of the shower with a blade it was.
 I felt better after and was able to talk to my husband. But now all I will have is another scar. I don't know what I've actually achieved. Yet I needed to do it. Why? |

Because it relieved your distress (the pain releases endorphins which improve your mood). Next time can you talk about your distress and relieve it this way? Are you in therapy?

I have a psychologist.
It's not so much the pain I think as the blood. I can jam something into my flesh and it can hurt like hell and nothing. Until I see blood. :S |

Have you been working with your therapist on what to do when you are upset?
