Triggering (SI) - dont know what to do

[ladybug]

ok so atm and well all day ive really wanted to cut and the only thing that has stopped me from doing so is the fact that my boyfriend is comming over on saturday and i dont know whats gunna happen so i dont want to and him find them because i dont think he knows i still cut i know he knows i used to because i spent most of the film we saw kissing my scars on my arm better (bless him) but im scared to talk to him in case he doesnt know and thinks im weird and breaks up with me ... im sure he wouldnt because he truely is the nicest guy ive ever been out with. but the thoughts still in my head and i cant get rid of it.

i dont know what to do and its making me want to cut even more because i dont like being confused and i am.

Ok, honestly, in my opinion to have a good relationship you need to be able to be honest with your boyfriend or in any other relationship for that matter. If he is as much of a nice guy as you say I'm sure he would support you in whatever way you needed. I self-harmed severely for some part of my life and my boyfriend does not mind the scars in the least. Cutting won't help the situation but talking will. Talk to him about how you feel he isn't a mind reader.

since he knows you used to cut and still likes you he can probably take the truth, you know? you need people there to support you and if someone so important to you doesn't know where you're at, he's not going to know to help. telling him'll be hard but in the long run it'll help more than cutting xxx
