I went three months without hurting myself. And I was so proud. Then I slipped up and scratched my hand. That was the extent of my slipping up until a few days ago I put four cuts in my wrist and carved hate in my leg... I'm so dissapointed, but I've fallen back to my lifeline. Just now I put probably about 10-15 new cuts in my arm. It's so hard.. The one person keeping me happy not only broke up with me (I could have dealt with that) but he's not so happy himself and no one knows what's wrong. And I can't tell my parents about my problem, because they're part of it...

It's ok to have a set back, you just need to try your best to get back on track.
Think about what you did to stop last time, do things you enjoy to keep you from reaching for a blade.
Im sorry you broke up, it seems like he has his own problems, try to help him if you can, find out what's wrong. If you were close then there is no reason why he shouldn't let you in, he could just need Someone to listen whilst he talks. You could help each other, you don't need to be going out to do that. Parents are very often part of the cause and it's understandable that you will find it difficult telling then but is there anyone your close to that you could let in? A friend that you trust. It helps letting other people know what you're feeling don't try and keep it all to yourself.
You are strong enough to stop cutting, 3 months is something you should be proud of. It's a start and you can't let this relapse become permanent. You don't need cutting, its not a solution and usually becomes part of the problem.
