I can usually control my actions or thoughts when it comes to self-harm but lately this past week I have been having the thought of self-harm more and more often and have recently attempted self-harm again the first time in nearly 3 months. For the most part no one has notice especially my roommate and teammates for track. But I had a classmate and friend notice them today and I had to lie to cover it up. I am afraid to tell my boyfriend that i have cut myself again, but he knows of the past times I have done it and I have been telling him the thoughts are starting to return

I think you should be honest with your boyfriend, maybe he could help. Are you in therapy now for this? We all relapse from time to time but just keep trying to do whatever worked for you before, keeping busy, distraction, writing, etc, and hopefully those things will help again.

Sending 's. I'm sorry you are having such a hard time at the moment but you shouldn't have to go through this alone. If you can I would suggest talking to your boyfriend or someone you trust. They may be able to help you until things get easier again.

well with self harm its an addication and even if its been awile the temtation is still there slowly building up but what you should do is be honist, teel your boyfriend he could probibly help, but the last thing you want is for you to lose people in your life because they found out that you lied, best of luck to you with getting rid of the addiction of cutting

Telling your boyfriend should help.
I told mine as soon as I did it, and he helped me get through it (even after he yelled at me for doing it after being strong for 7 1/2 weeks and not telling him what was going on). He even cleaned my cuts for me, which is very cool, considering that he gets sick around blood very easily. I find it very addiciting myself, but not near as addicting as my sexual role-play addiction. I'm not going to start on that now, but both things, as I mentioned, are very addicting to me.
Hope you get better, lots of love and support
