I was stitched by my GP yesterday and she has done a few in the last two weeks, she said she thought I was doing it to be stitched by her even though I have wounds that she was not there for.

I think I am cutting more because I am addicted to the feelings I get and there is the added benefit of gaining comfort when the wounds are stitched, I think there is more comfort gained from her than from other doctors but that is only because she is a nice doctor whereas A&E have less pleasant ones and pretty awful nurses.

I am going to try to talk to her next week but don't know if I should admit I get comfort as I am afraid she might refuse to suture me again.

Does anyone else gain comfort from being put back together.
