My apoligies I have not been on here in quite some time.  yes I know what you mean in requards to addiction.  I am only successful as I have 4 friends that I can call at anytime and they help me through...I have even just sat silent on the phone woth them for hours....sometimes I just go to a friends (she is 30 years older then me) and she just holds me for hours like a Mum.....so it has helped....I am at almost 10 months and I still have days where I am soooo close to losing it all.  It is a moment by moment battle.  Find some people you can trully trust and let them help you through this journey...you are still young and the sooner you get a handle on this the better.  i am 39 and if I can do this with all my years of harming then so can you....surrond yourself with support.

awesome, i hope you keep it up.  I always tell myself I wont do it again, but when something way to emotionally diffucult comes up, its like im a completely different person and I just lose my normal mental state and I cut.  I always feel embarassed afterwards.  I try so hard to stop, but its like an addiction.  
Good luck with this!..you aren't alone
