I'm so happy that you haev become "cut free" I wish someday to have the same thing, I scare myself all the time... I am truly happy for you... Congradulations on your wellness...

i know how you must have felt, but its good your back on track!! good on ya!

I understand how you felt. i was like "wow, she is pretty similar to me in her story." my dad is not a trigger for me, at least not in the same way at all. its more the condition he is in, terminal. but before that even happened, i hated myself, and all that i was. i still kinda do, but my friends are helping me with that. i hated myself b/c people always made fun of me b/c i never said a thing to any adult. the only way my parents found out was in 7th grade when i was changed into a completely different person. for 2 years in a row, i wanted to die. i really did. i am not as bad anymore, i realize that people care about me. for the longest time, i tore open scabs and loved watching them bleed. then i began to 'accidentally' to get hurt while working. then a little over a month ago, i cut myself. shallow and small so that it wouldn't be noticed. i told 3 of my friends, and one told another. 2/4 still cut, 1/4 used to, but stopped, and the other never did. we decided to help eachother stop. i hope it will work out b/c i don't wish to be this way. congrats to your success. i hope to be that way someday soon. you are an inspiration. thanks for sharing your story.

I understand exactly how you feel. My grandfather (whom I live with) calls me names, yells at me, and even tells me to commit suicide! I have been cutting for a month now, and sadly enough plan to cut for many years to come (unless I commit suicide that is).
