Sh**

Post by Lyndsie » Mon Jun 27, 2005 8:02 pm

If I cut I'll lose her! If I hide it from her I'll be lying! She's my best friend I've scared her way to much, with my need to self-harm! I could cope in another way but I'll still lose her! AND I CAN'T LOSE HER, SHE'S MY BEST FRIEND!!!!!!!
I lost my one friend when she found out I was raped! I can't affored to lose my best friend, I'm sure losing her would kill me!! :(
I guess I just gotta make it until 8:00, cause after that I should be fine with coping! I'm going to the movies, and that should be fine!
Any ideas of how I can cope until then???? I've already been drawing, lissening to music, watching t.v., writing here on bus, and cleaning! Now I needa cut, and I need some idea how to avoid cutting, cause I just can't lose my best friend!!! :(

Thanx for checking up on me! It went pretty well, I drew on my arms, i danced, then i went to the movies, came home and wrote and read! At least that was just like anxiety or somthin!
Now I have a problem with my family today! And I know It can't be solved with cutting! Cutting won't get me any closer to my goal! Cutting will just help me feel better, it won't solve, or fix my problems! (I guess I'm trying to convince myself of that, still alittle bit!!)
