Unhappy HELP!! - January 12th 2012, 05:17 AM

I'm having horrible urges to cut right now. I have blades in my room and am tempted to go up and get them. I want to feel the pain, I want to see the gash in my skin and I want to see the blood. The only thing keeping me from cutting is a deal I made with my friend. I want to cut so badly but i'm scared she's gonna get mad at me if I do. What do I do? I mean I could cut and not tell her but it seems unfair on her part. I just need someone to talk to. I'm going to try the butterfly Project b/c it's helped me in the past but if anyone one is willing to talk or give advice it'd be very much appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

After you made the deal with your friend, the first thing you should have done was throw away all those razors you have in your room. Having them not there should at least lessened down that temptation that you have. Sometimes when your brain knows that something is there, it automatically wants it. So that's my advice to you. Throw away all of the razors to eliminate temptations.

Also, talk to your friend. She is the person you made the deal with. I'm hoping she also said they would be with you every step of the way because you really need that support.

I'm sorry you are feeling this way right now. I also believe that you should be honest and true to your friend. She means well and is trying to keep you safe. If you ever need anything or anyone to talk to, feel free to PM me. Im here for you. <3 Stay safe, and definitely re-try the butterfly project. I love it and it works. I hope it works for you once again. <3

im sorry. draw a butterfly on wherever you cut yourself for me, ok? give it a name and a story. write out a whole story about that butterfly. by the time you are done the urge will likely have passed because it takes time. i hope this helps


On the outside I'm smiling,
but inside im crying.
I'm silent, but screaming,
I'm so slowly dying.
