Everyone in my family is driving me crazy. I don't know how much more I can handle. I have to do a chore to be able to eat, while my other siblings can do whatever. They all sit on their butts while I have to do all the work in the home.
At the moment I'm almost 18 months free.. but I feel like starting up again will make me feel better. The only thing that makes me hesitate is how long I've been cut free. I just feel like I have no one to talk to... so it makes it hard when I feel this way and there's no one there...

That doesn't sound fair! Are you the oldest or the only girl? Or maybe you are the most cooperative and therefore, the easiest to get to do the work? This would make anyone upset.

I have an older brother, but he doesn't live at home anymore, so I'm the oldest sibling in the house.
Part of me now is like **** it. Last night my boyfriend for over a year and I decided we were going to go on a break. And now I think about what were not going to be able to do together. My friends baby shower, halloween, picking new college courses. We were going to do all of that stuff together... So that just makes me want to hurt myself even more..

Have you talked to your parents about how unfair the work is distributed between you and your sibs?
I'm sorry about your bf. I misunderstood "break".

Yeah I have, and they really don't care and don't see it as a problem.

Yeah being cut free for awhile made me reluctant to start up again.. so I started it up on one arm and left my other arm cut free as a memoir
I have no advice for your personal situation, the blind cannot guide the blind... but sending hugs and best wishes to you |

Yeah, I'm 18. I'm in college currently, but I go to a community college, therefore I'm still living at home.

I think it does, but I'm a little nervous with talking to anyone in person about my problems.

Until you recover with therapy you are going to keep SI ing. You need to seek help.
