My husband tried to commit suicide with one of my self harming tools. He's physically fine but I'm left feeling horribly violated. Not only that but I feel my tools have been tainted. On top of that I feel guilty for being so selfish. How do I get over this? I really don't want to bring this up to T.

That sounds really rough, but I wouldn't say you're being selfish. I think it's a pretty normal reaction to a weird situation. I hope you and your husband are receiving the help you need.

Wow that situation is unnerving in so many ways. Having never been in the situation, I don't know the best way to advise you to deal with it - but I do believe that your feelings are highly justifiable.

I agree, even if you don't want discuss it with your therapist. It's a good idea too anyway. I think you will need to have help to sort this out for yourself. Best wishes to you and your husband.

I don't think you're being selfish in the very slightest.

Thank-you for saying I'm not selfish. This is such a cluster ****. I'm sure by now T and HT have talked, they share a wall. They were both very concerned about both of us and our relationship. My T had no idea that I have a little kit. We had only talked about SI 2x and history not current at all. I think this will a tough session.
