i understand what you're saying and feeling... sometimes people try to let us know that they care or that they are worried and it crosses over into just making us feel bad. what do you think that his purpose was in telling you how he was feeling?
perhaps you could suggest some ways that he could help you out. giving people specific ideas of what to do can direct their support into channels that actually help. also, you could let him know what your safety plan is when you get an urge (if you don't have one, make it...)

this is my magical medicine cabinet. Left to right they contain: courage, hope, calmness, and strength.
The magical part: They NEVER run out, so borrow some any time you want.
PM me anytime, I love getting messages :)

Ah that not fair on you.. Can you tell him that you don't like being guilt tripped.. Remember though self harm is a choice, you can do things about stopping.. But i understand that it really hard when its your only coping mechism..

I think your boyfriend was just expressing his concern. Did he directly come out and say it was your fault? Really, none of the things you say he said sound like he was trying to guilt trip you. In a relationship, both people need to be able to express their thoughts and feelings, and I think that's what he was doing.
