This is NOT what "ok" is meant to feel like.

I'm sick of kidding myself and everyone else that I'm fine. I feel like I can't do this anymore.
I'm like 3 days off being 13 months free from cutting, but that doesn't mean I'm ok.
Tonight I was...

I'm not sure I trust the tutors, I don't really know them on a personal level.

I did see a counsellor at the uni once, but she left. I will probably go and try to find someone else when I have the time.

I do try to take that approach with assignments but I just feel like I'm...

I am not coping. *Trigger*

Tomorrow will be 10 months since I last cut, and I like to live in this little world of thinking that everything will be ok if I just don't cut again, but it's not. The urges are so intense and I...
