Things have gotten so bad that I want to SI again. It has been 3 years since the last time I SI'ed. I stopped because my partner wanted me to, and I love her. I am afraid she might leave if I cut. But there is something else I can do where it just looks like a light bruise for a while. I don't think she would notice. And it really hurts, so I get that sensation. I really need this, bad. The abuse from when I was a kid has come up again. It is all bad. I need to do this. I am so sorry everyone. So sorry.

Your 3 years didn't go anywhere, you still have it. That is great that you had those 3 years. It seems you are SI ing again because you are struggling and SI helps you to cope? Can you get a therapist? A therapist can help you work through your past so that you don't need to just cope.

(I just saw on your other thread that you do have a therapist.)

Like Sannah said, you still have those years, that experience.
Do you know what caused the urge to do it again? Do you see a therapist? If you don't you should start seeing one. Even if everything is good again, you should talk about what got you to the point where it is okay.
Feel better

Yes, my T is great and she is helping me. I have just been hugely triggered by my nephews being abused. I found out about it and intervened. And I am making sure it does not happen again, whatever I have to do.

This would be very triggering. Are you talking about this with your T?

attentionThis is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.
