I dont' know what happened, but suddenly I'm feeling really down, and all I can think of is cutting. I haven't cut in 5 months, and I really really really want to quit.
I'm trying to understand what brought this on, but I can't think of anything. I've never crashed this fast before, within a couple of hours, from fine to wanting to cut and feeling really low.

I can't think of anything. I don't know what happened. I made it through the night without doing anything, yay!, and today I feel fine again. I hope the same thing doesn't happen again tonight.

(((hugs)))
Just stay strong, and try to identify WHY you feel the need to cut, what cutting would do for you, and what else you could do instead. Just know that you have come SO far, and you ARE strong enough to fight the urges! |

Just curious.....was night time mostly the time of day in the past that you had urges to cut?
Just wondering if the time of day in itself may be your trigger. I know when certain things happened at a specific time of day for me, that time of day would end up triggering the feelings.....just like the fall feel in the air triggers my PTSD feelings.

Thank you all! Eskielover, night time is definitely the hardest for me, and that's when I usually cut. I think it's because I'm so busy during the day with the kids, and the animals, and the house and all, and then at night, everyone's in bed, the dogs are asleep, and it's all quiet, and it's just me.
Not feeling good again tonight. The urge to cut isn't that strong, and I'm not feeling as low as I did last night, but I'm far from fine. Good thing is, I'm really tired, so I'm just going to go to bed soon. Can't do anything stupid while I'm asleep.
