New here, saying hello
Hey...
I'm 23, female, from Chicago and am a graduate student. I started cutting when I was about 12, although it didn't get "bad" until I was about 15/16. At that point my dad was being very emotionally abusive as well as fairly physically abusive, my addict brother was also living with us, which caused more problems. I was able to quit through most of college. Started up again around age 21/22. I'm trying to stop now, or at least limit my cutting, however, I've started punching myself more instead... so I don't know if that's really any better.
I guess that's the quick version...
Anyway... hello

Welcome To SIF2!
I also do that, limit my cutting then end up punching myself instead.... I'm sure it's kindof better... maybe ... at least as a lesser of two evils? ...
I hope you like it here and feel free to look at the recovery section and stuff too if you like... it's not very full... mostly my ranting about my smoking and alcoholism I guess
If you need anything PM/Message any of the Admins or me and stuff and we'll try to help you out...
See you around Rosie!
Owen
Ps: I'll add we have a secret facebook group so PM/message me for details if you'd like to join it as it's quite active too
Re: New here, saying hello
I look forward to seeing you around the forum

Hey. I'm sorry for the belated welcome. My name is Travis. Welcome to SIF!
Owen is right, we have a recovery section as well as the general sections. I think a lot of us lurk there, to be honest. If you ever need someone to listen, you can always hit me up via PM as well. Or on the fb group if you're there. Quitting's hard, and sometimes it's good to have a cheerleader. See you around.
