im a cutter. i have scars all up and down my arm. only 2 people know about it. but every time i see my boyfriend i have to cover it up, and make sum sort of excuse. i HATE lying to him! i feel like i should tell him, but i dont want him to think im crazy and dump me! but like.. i cant stop cutting. its always been my way of calming myself down...
hun...I know where you are coming from. Cutting is scary and it can be very embarrassing at times. Some people just don't understand where other people just want to help and be there for you. I think you should let your boyfriend know what's going on. Don't just blab it out...but kind of ease into the issue. Tell him that you have been depressed and hte only way you have ever been able to deal with anxiety and depression is by cutting. Let him know that you didn't tell him earlier because you didn't want to scare him. If he "runs away" or breaks up with you then he is not worth your time. He's not good enough...if he's your boyfriend and a good guy...he should stay around and try to help you out. I know it's scary telling someone about cutting...but my boyfriend knows about me and it has helped are relationship become stronger (as weird as that seems) since now we both feel we can be completely honest with each other. Hun, if you ever need me, if you ever need any advice about anything else...you can ask me. I know from more of a personal level how this all feels...just know that people are out there that do understand...good luck hun!
