Question:
Okay, this is really scary coming out in the open and saying it, but I felt like it would be safer here because no one here knows who I am and whoever's here can give me solid biblical adivce, I'm hoping.
I've cut myself lately.
I'm scared. I don't know why I do it.
It's like there are times when I'm perfectly all right, and then I freak out a day later.
It's not like I'm slashing at my wrists with razors or anything, it's a few tiny scrapes. But I don't want to hurt myself.
Please, if anyone has any passages of scripture or anything to share with me, I would be forever grateful.
Just leave me a private message, please.
Pray for me.
Answer:

i know exactly how you feel. i was doing that too about a month ago. and like you said, it wasn't like i had these really nasty bleeding slashes on my wrists...just little red scrapes...and it brought like...such a strange feeling the first time i did it and really made me feel better. but everytime i'd look at my wrist I would think "oh God...who am i becoming?" and it would scare me so much...so...know that you're NOT ALONE! how did i stop? well...i don't really know, but i did...actually what happened was, i sort of got healed...i will REALLY pray for you though cuz i really know how you feel and how horrible it feels but how good it feels at the same time. you can talk to me ANY TIME!! REALLY!!!! anything. i really really really mean it...Jesus loves you...
