I just want to say to everyone....including the members that arent christians:
God loves you!!...he hates seeing you hurting and wants nothing but the best for you!!
I used to cut...i cut from 16 years-20 years of age...im not 23 and havent cut in 3 years...i just recently became a christian....for a long time i had problems with "f God really cared why did he let me do this, why didnt he help me stop"
God doesnt give us more than we can handle...and everyhting is done for a reason, its all for His plan!
Now i dont know the reason you are hurting yourself and what God's motivation is and why this is happening in your life, but for me its this: God knew i could handle it and i did...i overcame it and went to school to be a child and youth worker...and now im a christian and am getting involved with the youth at my church! I know he let this happen to me so that i could help others and thats what i plan to do...if i can help other people that cut by understanding them and empathizing wiht them then that is sooo amazing...and even by educatiing parents and teachers is a way i can help
I know this is what God wants me to do and i have to do it....its hard for me because i dont like sharing those personal details of my life but i know i have to because god wants me to share my story to help others!
Sorry that i have rambled but just know that what doesnt kill you will only make you stronger!!
I am here if anyone ever needs to talk...i cant promise i will have all the answers, but i can promise to listen, be there for you, and to understand
Love
Laura
