having difficulties coping *si*

[fragmentedxdream]

lately all i think about is how i want to si. the urge to cut is really strong and it's just so tempting and hard to avoid. life's just been rough lately so the thought has been nearly constant. i can't cut though because i don't want my boyfriend to be hurt because every time i cut and he finds out he breaks down.

so i really don't know what to do, i want to cut so badly, but i know i can't because i will hurt him. any advice?

I don't have much advice except to tell you to hang in there.

(if okay)

I know how you feel hun (cant talk to my partner as i set her off) have you tried marker pens ? it seems to work for my gf just draw over yourself and him if he willing (let him know how you feel ) i'm probably just saying the same thing every one else does but old advice don't harm

that's really hard, i have a similar situation, but my bf is a bit better at handling - hate doing it to him tho. is there any way you can talk to him about it, tell him what it's about - make it more understandable and less "oh my f**K, what the hell?!" ? ask him to do some reading up on it...? good luck if ok
