I feel like I have such a great life right now, I’m happy (for the most part), I have someone I love but yet I’m still having SI and Sui thoughts. I shouldn’t be this way, I’m happy and yet even in my happiness I want to cut.
I haven’t told my boyfriend that I cut but he has definitely started noticing the scars all over and asked about them. I told him he won’t be able to break me of some bad habits and he said he will try to help me as much as possible. Still I’m scared of what he’ll say or do, I’ve lost too many friends because I told them. I was starting to not care, starting to be okay with telling others about my scars but now I’m not so sure. I seem so strong on the outside but I’m ready to break any moment. I don’t know what to do. He makes me so happy and I want to be open with him. I’m happy but still wanting to, I know it’s an addiction, I am well aware of that but I’m happy, shouldn’t I have no need to hurt myself? You would think it would be as simple as happy don’t cut, but if you’re sad, angry, frustrated, depressed, etc... cut. |

Hello KeepHoldingOn, So sorry you are still struggling with these thoughts. I don't cut, but know this is an addiction.
These thoughts especially sui are very troubling. I'll ask the usual questions, do you see a T & have a pdoc & if so are you on meds? If so call them & let them know what's going on. If nothing else call the ER or Per & discuss these things with them. Your bf would want you to be safe, especially if you are alone. Please consider calling someone professional today or call the soft hotline where you just talk to a person trained for this. This is not normal. Like you said your happy & don't know why you think these thoughts, but they are there for some reason. Either some past trauma or pathological or both but you can't help it. Again, please do something today to keep yourself safe. Take care of yourself & keep posting!!!  PS as for the comment above, this person must be very mis-informed or trying to make light of something they don't understand... |

Happy (for the most part).... this could mean that there's something else going on. a reason that cutting appeals to you. It would be wise to find out that reason... if you can.

I do have a T and a Pdoc. I’m supposed to be on meds but do not take them and haven’t for a long time. I haven’t bothered to call either of them.
puzzy: I don’t know what it is! |

mmmm... that's like most of us... we don't know what it is... and then hopefully we will figure it out.
