So... I've been cutting for the past... damn... five years now. It kinda comes in waves that go with my bi-polar depression and schizophrenia. When I get more depressed or more paranoid or feel more vulnerable, I cut more. But lately, I've been cutting every chance I get.
I want to do it. I look forward to doing it. I fantasize about doing it. I no longer see anything wrong with cutting. I cut all over my body. My wrists, thighs, forearms, and torso are covered in fresh marks and scars. I don't exactly know why I'm writing this, because I know I'll just get all those comments about how what I'm doing is harmful and what about the people I care about, and blah, blah, blah. I'm making myself HAPPY. I'm NOT going to commit suicide, life's too beautiful. I'm just making it more beautiful in my world.

The fact that you are writing this proves that there is a part of you, no matter how small, that wants to change and stop what you're doing. I'm not going to go on and on about how I feel about self-injury, you can probably assume I think it's unhealthy. Just wanted to let you know that I don't believe you 100% want to do this. I hope you'll get help when you feel ready. Good luck to you.

Yes, I have a therapist. And a psych. I'm not going to tell them I'm still cutting. I'm not going back to the hospital. That's all that would come out of telling them because they don't know how to do their f***ing job.

You could go to different psych or therapist. I was cutting like crazy. My sister told me to call her old therapist. I stopped seeing my therapist at time- started seeing new one and havent cut since. Everyone is different, and every situation is different, but if you aren' t satisfied with your care, that' s always an option.

Life, getting better is part your responsibility too. You and your T need to work together.

I won't argue with you about not being sick and not needing to get better, but if you are cutting, something is definitely wrong.
