Nice to meet you! :)
Hello! My name is PhøenixRising. Cliche, I know. It's wonderful to be on a support site like this. I hope to make new friends and hopefully help others.
I'm a teenager transgender female-to-male guy, and I began cutting first about a month ago. It was impulsive; my anxiety consumed me and I cut my breasts. The pain was relieving and felt so comforting and just... good. I cut again about 3 weeks ago and it left scars on my forearm- that time I cut because my depression was crushing me and I needed to feel something, anything other than bleakness and emptiness.
After cutting again today, I realized it might be in my best interest to seek help and advice from you lovely online people. I scare myself because part of me doesn't want help, part of me is indifferent and doesn't want to stop. I try to justify it, tell myself that it's okay so long as I don't tell my friends or family. It's ok because it's how I cope. But deep down, I know it isn't. And that's how I ended up here.
