We applied for an apartment friday and were denied today bbecause we are in forreclosure. A tent in the park is gonna be home soon. We have 16 days and we will be homeless. I want to cut and jjust keep cutting. Spoke to my therapist today and she was obviously disappointed that I cut last week, and would be angry if I did it again. I so need to cut to make the despair go away, if only a short while.

Nicole, I'm so sorry. Of course you feel bad. Can you just let yourself feel bad instead of cutting? Can you apply at other apartments?

is there a housing department in your area? Are you on a disability payment? There may be social workers that can help.
