I used to self-inflict and my then-boyfriend would get mad, or he’d threaten to leave me or hurt himself if I did it again. This just made it a lot worse for me.

Ironically, once the relationship was over I finally began to recover. I’m proud to say that I haven’t cut in over two years, with just one relapse a year ago.
