ive been cutting for ablout6 mo0nths now n it feels like 5 years. i cant stop. ive been in the hospital n the day i come out, boom , there i go cuttin again. im a 15 year old girl whos on honor classes, does activities and much moer. i never did drugs , drank, or smoked n never will. but this cuttin thing is takin over my life!!!!! its hard to use coping skills when u get depressed over nuttin or for a reason... u just say screw them n cut n it becomes obsessive. i do have drugs addicts on my dad side of the family n mental health (depression, add, ect) on my moms side... but is that whats causing me not to stop?!?!?! can anyone help me?!?!?!?
