    I do too sometimes. I am learning not to, but I know it's a hard road to travel and especially alone, if you want to talk, feel free to pm me.

    Hi JayT

    There is a school of thought in the field of psychology that if we are physically/emotionally/ or sexually abused in our childhoods then we will think there is something wrong with us.

    This tape in our head ( "I dont deserve any better " , or "I am no good" ) are played often as we the victim struggle with our inner demons.

    I have met women like yourself at ACOSA meetings, and elsewheres in groups where we are dealing with this issue.

    I hope you will learn to live life with out those false tapes, and without the self harm .

    You are a worth more ...so much more...in so many ways.

    take care. be well.

    Hi YankeeBob
    Thank you for your words, which I know makes sense. I am starting to feel that I can begin to deal with the tape, and indeed haven't self-harmed for about a month now which feels good.
    Wishing you well.
