I am sorry … Ah, i wish i could offer some advice. I think my life is pointless too… Maybe you shouldnt beat your head on the wall, then you might be in more pain…
@katiebear12. Awesome for resisting cutting for so long! I know it isn’t easy to resist. I stopped burning a year ago. I still have the urge to feel the relief and control then I look at all of the scars and try to self-soothe some other way. I am not embarrassed about my scars because they are part of me but I still feel I have to hide them from family and friends. I had my sleeves rolled up going though UK customs and the agent asked about them (with my complexion burn marks sort if look like a skin ailment so I understand the questions)

That’s a pain I can control.
You are so right. It is relieving to be able to control some pain in my life.
I agree. I finally stopped cutting in November, with one relapse, but controlling some pain makes me feel slightly better
thats good…

My friends and family ask about my marks. I usually hide them ( my family knows, but not all my friends) it’s very uncomfortable
