I used to cut, but I've stopped for the most part now. Although sometimes, when I remember the comfort that only a razor can bring me, I crave it again. It's like an addiction. I sometimes even crave it randomly..
when I'm out somewhere or at work or whatever, and I'll just want to cut more than anything..and I have to try and stop myself from finding an excuse to leave. I rememeber once I was at work, I work at Bluenotes, and I was folding the clothes and cleaning up the store, just going off in my own world as I clean, and I ended up locking myself in the staff bathroom and scratching my arm desperitly with my nails..I must have been in there for maybe 10 minutes before I reliezed what I was doing. Has anyone else had anything like this happen to them? |

I miss it randomly. But I haven't been to that extreme. I may have a while ago after I stopped cutting. It's hard to just stop. So, I understand. And I'm around if you want to talk

Been there.... done that... way too many times.
I know how you feel with cravings out of nowhere. And it is an addiction. I've quit cutting (almost 11 months now) but especially within the first months I'd find myself biting my arm or doing anything painful to my body, that was convenient, other than cutting. Oh how many days I spent locking myself in bathrooms. Good luck

<font color="purple">Oh yes! Sometimes I will deliberately do something that I know has a high possibility of getting cut, and then I can say ... Oh well I was playing with the cat.... or something.... Some times I am aware and other times I am not until afterwards.... The urges are still there daily, its a constant struggle..... </font>
