Please don't feel stupid for it. It is a confusing feeling to sit with.lucidnightmares wrote:I used to cut about 2-3 years ago, but for the most part, stopped. I still occasionally punched myself or other objects or made a few cuts here and there. It's no where near as bad as it used to be. Yet, I can't help but miss it. I feel I like the pain, its easier to deal with things than being angry or crying. I also like the scars or cuts. The thing is, generally everything in my life is going pretty well. I have a decent job with cool coworkers and an amazing boyfriend who loves me even with my psycho episodes. I don't really know why I'm craving the pain again. I feel stupid for thinking like this.

Reads like your therapy has been helpful to you. Can you share how you have been re-connecting to your emotions? Undoing the dissociation bit by bit, over time? With re-associating, is the cutting urge less intense? I am in the process of re-associating (my term here) myself, what a slow, slow process. I would like to read how it is for you???
