-- Posted by jsia at 2:47 am on July 2, 2009 This isn't a cry for help, just musing. I used to cut about 3 years ago, it didn't get serious because my friend snapped me out of it. I took a break from LW about a year after I quit, and I've been back now for maybe a month. The thing is, I've recently had my first cravings to cut again since I returned to LW. Honestly, I didn't think of it once before now. I think it's because there are so many topics on here about cutting it kinda reminds your brain, I used to do that...and it felt pretty good. Bad, bad thoughts. -- Posted by DuBBy at 2:49 am on July 2, 2009 I never thought of it that way...Yes very bad -- Posted by Serj Tankian at 2:49 am on July 2, 2009 Really makes me wonder. -- Posted by Areola at 2:49 am on July 2, 2009 Very bad thoughts. Don't go back to it, it doesn't fix anything. -- Posted by WillFail at 2:50 am on July 2, 2009 Quote: from jsia at 2:47 am on July 2, 2009 This isn't a cry for help, just musing.

Bad, bad thoughts. yeah i know the posts are rather triggering. it's not that bad for you in my opinion. just dont' do it deep, treat your wounds, and don't do it where eople commonly see -- Posted by Areola at 2:52 am on July 2, 2009 Quote: from WillFail at 5:50 am on July 2, 2009 Quote: from jsia at 2:47 am on July 2, 2009 This isn't a cry for help, just musing.    I used to cut about 3 years ago, it didn't get serious because my friend snapped me out of it.

See his name? He fails. You don't tell someone that -- Posted by Pebbles123 at 2:52 am on July 2, 2009 But think how much it makes everything feel so much worse in the long run. It helps at the time but then It's shit after. Don't go back :) -- Posted by heidie at 3:12 am on July 2, 2009 Yeah I kinda get where you coming from... but if you have quit for so long it would be horrible to have to go back to it. -- Posted by See Me Now at 3:17 am on July 2, 2009 yeah, thats why I try to avoid posts like this. -- Posted by Troll1000 at 3:23 am on July 2, 2009 leave then -- Posted by cutie2 at 3:33 am on July 2, 2009 I know, sometimes Livewire's had a negative affect on me too (not really with cutting). I can see how there is a lot of triggering content. I hate to think that the posts in here (I guess particularly this forum, yeah?) may be triggering people. If TDEI causes you issues, be careful, and maybe avoid it when you're feeling vulner... wtf am I saying? Er, avoid it when you're feeling vulnerable unless you need to make a topic* and don't focus on the ones that might trigger. Does anyone think it would help if topics about cutting had 'trigger' in the title, or something to warn you beforehand? Cos it can be discussed. edit: lol, mind you, pretty much every topic in here would probably need it. -- Posted by katlyndonni at 6:23 am on July 2, 2009 dont go back to it. i promise you, life after cutting is so much better. -- Posted by jsia at 2:30 am on July 4, 2009 Quote: from cutie2 at 8:33 pm on July 2, 2009 I know, sometimes Livewire's had a negative affect on me too (not really with cutting).
