I've been wanting to say something n here... but I haven't been able to put in words what I really want to say... Now I think I can do it.

This summer wasn't easy for me... everyone think I've given up cutting... my friends, family, and school... but only one people knows i cut myself in june, and no one knows about me cutting myself in july.

I don't think I'm exactly ready to just give it all up. I can control myself to only do it once in a while, but not completely stop. In a way, I don't want to give it up. The biggest mistake was last oct., after my first time cutting, i scared myself and told my friends, who got my to tell a teacher. But I wasn't ready to stop, and I didn't know that until Jan. when I started up again and wasn't able to cover it up as well, because pretty much everyone knew i had already started a few months earlier, and knew what to look for in me.

I'm just so confused.... whether I trust my friends, want to stop cutting, or questioning what I'm going to do when school starts and people start to ask me "how i'm doing". Right now, I can't even figure out if I'm straight or not...
to top it all off, I'm starting high school in a week... I'm class president now and I can't even stand being a hypocrite and helping the school inform people cutting and other self-harm isn't the way to go.

and now, I'm frusterated because the only thing keeping me from cutting is going back to school and the inability to hide how i feel. Plus, I finally got out of therapy... i can't go back... i hated it and it never even helped me.

I just don't know what to do... am i a bad person if I keep doing it and getting help again when I really need it?

I'm sorry for such a long post and havig everything jump around from one thing to another... I'm just...confused :'(

Well, that's not too bad. You just have to make it for another week. I know, easier said than done.
The key is not to think about it. Avoid any means of cutting at all times. Don't spend too much time alone. When you're alone, your mind gets drawn back to razorblades.

Aw, a newbie! Well, first off, welcome. :)
Second, can you please elaborate on turning into someone you're not used to being?
Third, the word is "to". It's only two letters (or in the other case, three) and I'd appreciate it if you could not add extra letters into it. Sorry for being the spelling nazi.

Ello newcomer. Welcome to VT. I'm Kyrra! Sorry to bash you, but can you specify "emo"? Also, I second what Rae said. (:
I'm sorry you're going through such a rough time Chelsea. Maybe you can get another different therapist? One who works better and understands you?
Love, it's hard but it'll get better. I'm here to talk whenever you need it.
