My cutting is getting a lot worse than its ever been, its taking over everything and im cutting every day, I cant stop myself, its seems like its the only thing on my mind.
I have a CPN and a support worker but I cant ask them for help because everything goes back to the psychiatrist and he will put me back in hospital.
Ive got some cuts that I know need stitched but if I go to the hospital my parents would be told.
I guess what im asking here is any of you that have cut and stopped how did you do it? or anyone that finds ways to distract yourself and not do it as often, what do you do? I will try anything.

You can try the classic Butterfly Project, though, to be honest, I think it wouldn't work. Or, for instance, whenever you feel the urge to do it, go do something else right away to take the urge off your mind, listen to some music, or go study, something of that sort. Bear in mind that it needs to be something gradual: first you cut everyday, then only once every two days, then once every three days, and so on, until you're able to control yourself.

The best way I got out of cutting was to give my self a never ending to do list to take my mind of it, anything that took my mind off it, going outside and trying to go to places with friends, just gaming and music works amazingly for me, try take up new hobbys and crafts to amuse you and take up your spare time and before you know it, you won't be cutting. I hope you do well. Here if you ever need to talk to someone.
