I've been fighting the urge to cut, and so far I've been successful, but it's getting harder and harder. Its' just, I know that when/if I give in, it's going to be very very bad. I look at the scars from cutting my wrists a couple of weeks ago, and objectively speaking they're quite bad, but now for me it's just not enough. I need more.

I ate chinese food last night, and I got some sweet and sour sauce on my hand and fingers and the palm of my hand. And I just froze, and stared at it, and had kinda like a flashback to that day a couple of weeks ago when I did that. It was such a huge trigger. I was glad I was sitting there with my husband and kids, or who knows what would have happened. I guess I'll just have to make sure I'm never alone for now. I don't think I'd be strong enough if I was alone.

And all the peace you could never find
Is waiting there to hold and keep you
Welcome to the first day of your life

Just open up your eyes as I lay you down tonight
Safe on the other side
No more tears to cry

Keeping this to yourself doesn't help, wwie-- it makes it more difficult. What would have happened if you had told your husband?
Have you gotten a new therapist yet? Do you have any support system to go to? * hugs *

My husband would be very worried, and he really has enough to deal with right now.
I do have a new t, seen her twice so far. And my best friend is having a hard time herself right now, she just got out of the hospital.
