All You Need Is Love
I'm just about a month free of cutting!
It's been hard, especially because it's been a very stressful time of year for me, and I was very very tempted at many times over the last 3 weeks or so, but I've made it this far.
My boyfriend has been just SUCH a huge support. He tells me constantly that he loves me and that I'm beautiful, that he hardly even sees my scars, and those that he does, he doesn't care about, because he cares about what's in my heart, not on my skin. He is the first person who has ever told me that these scars weren't something to be ashamed of... and that meant the world to me.
I love him so much, and I am SO lucky to have had his love and support in this. I have someone to call when I'm being triggered, at any hour of the day, and he is 120% there for me. He actually talked me down from suicidal a couple weeks ago.
I am doing so well, and while the dark feelings and temptations aren't gone, I am getting better at keeping them at bay until the craving can pass. I'm so happy and I think I might actually beat it this time!
