I've been with my boyfriend for a year and a half now. And I love him more than anything.

The thing is, before he knew me, I used to be a cutter. And well you know how old habits die hard, I've still had compulsions where I wanted to cut.
He doesn't know this.

He gave me a bracelet for valentines day this year, which I haven't taken off since he put it on. The wrist he put it on was my "cutting wrist" so to say.

And this bracelet has kept me from cutting myself. Because every time I want to, I look to where I would cut and see the bracelet. Which just kind of reminds me that I am worth something to someone.

It means so much to me, and I hate keeping things from him. But I'm just not sure if I should tell him?

I think you should. He would support you and love you. It's best not to keep secrets from those you love.

I think the truth is better than lying. I mean, even if he doesn't accept this...he kinda doesn't know what he has then , u know? But yeah, go for it, let him know about how u feel bout cutting now that u dont do it.

tell him if you want, don't tell him if you don't....i don't see how it would make a big difference to him either way...

Not until it presents an issue or is directly asked.

It serves no purpose unless it's becoming an issue.

You would just make him paranoid and constantly worrying about you. Is it really worth it?

I'd tell him, Plus sounds like he truely cares about you. Maybe he can even help you with your feelings of wanting too. I used to cut, and i used to drink and pop a lot of pills. Now, i am 100% clean from everything after 4 years and I told my fiance everything. we been together now close to 2 years and have a wonderful baby on the way. He has helped me and stuck by my side through everything. I stopped everything when we got together. I think he would support you and it's good to get it off your chest ya know? Be honest with him :) and good luck with everything and I wish you the best

Well considering I have been talking about how I need a psychiatrist, and he knows I had one in the past, I'm not sure how he'd be worrying any more so.

If you're not comfortable telling him, then don't. He doesn't have to know everything about your life.
