I noticed when asked what you could do to deal with this situation you picked a lot of physical remedies. So I have two questions about that. 1) You said you could: "Force all of my friends and relatives to move to the state I live in. Cure my children's nuero issues and my husband's depression, ado...

This is so hard. I don't remember it being so hard last time! Last time, were you trying to face the issues behind your cutting? It does make it harder but it's much more fulfilling at the end. Cutting gives me control because my family wants to take cutting away from me. I don't know if anything c...

Control means to me that i have control or someone esle has control. I want to have that control, over me and my life. Okay. But what does that entail? Is it small things like deciding what you're going to wear in the morning? Or bigger things like living independently from your family, in your own...

What does "control" mean for you? What are some healthy ways for you to feel in control? (Think small, if you have to.) i could use other coping skill, but then when they don't work i'll be at the same place again! That sounds self-defeating. Why do you hurt yourself? What are you looking for when y...

I wish I could heal you, I wish I could heal myself. I wish you would talk to me. I wish I were happy with myself. I wish it weren't so hard. I wish I didn't have to fill out those forms at work. I wish I could devote my time to travel, writing, and hugging children in orphanages. I wish I had anoth...

Splitimage, I do the same thing.

I like the feeling of having something to hold and squeeze.

And when it gets bad at home, I go curl up with my big stuffed ducky, Harold,

and you better believe my husband regrets buying him for me. Harold and I spend a lot of time together.

Z--

If you don't have faith in me to do this, how can I have faith in me?
I need you to work with me, I can't do this without you.

S -- You absolutely, without fail, confound me every time. No, I really don't want to see you, ever again. You're fairly harmless in general, but you send me over the edge just by entering my presence, and that's not something I can really handle at this point in time. Or perhaps ever. I was wildly ...

M -- I love you. I worry. Don't ask me not to, it's futile. B -- I know something is wrong, and I know you probably don't want to talk about it. That's okay -- it's your prerogative -- but I wish that you would at least tell me "I'm having a hard time right now, and I'd rather not talk about it." T ...

S -- I don't mind not really mattering to you, but I wish you'd make up your mind about the matter. Either you care or you don't. Either you are only out for your own interests or not. I'm fine with that, either way, but I am definitely not fine with sitting here waiting for you to knock the head ga...

Honey -- I did not lose your wallet. You lost your wallet. Panicking about what a horrible, lousy situation it is will not help either of us. Get your butt in gear and do what you have to do to replace everything. It is not my responsibility to fix it. S -- You can be as much of an asshole as you wa...
