Array ( [sid] => 69613 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => My Knife [time] => 2004-10-31 21:07:10 [hometext] => I havent cut in three months, untill today that is. I wrote this just a few minutes ago. Cutting is an addiction and a drug. [bodytext] => I say I wont cut
as you ask me what
I'm doing tonight
we wont have a fight
I dont know what I'm doing
All my anger just keeps brewing
Every promise I make
I somehow manage to break
It trickles down
I wish I could drown
I'm starting to cry
But I dont know why
I did it again
I remember back when
I made that first cut
I kept my mouth shut
these people they think
That all I do is drink
If only they knew
I have never had a brew
I dont drink, I dont smoke
so why am I always broke
The main problem in my life
Is I keep picking up my knife [comments] => 5 [counter] => 313 [topic] => 66 [informant] => lilracer37 [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => drugabuse )

you can overcome anything. you can solve any problem. there are always more options than chosen. check the cutters forum, if you want to...might make you see things differently.

A painful but truthful write. I think you need someone you can be open with and talk. Please get help.

a very pained and depressed write, you will one day be strong enough to say no and find an another way of coping, I haven't cut for a few weeks, I am proud for everyday that I don't cut, you went 3 months, you should be proud, you have just gone for the coping method that you are familar with, with time and inner strength you will overcome this,

takecare
