Hi
Hi. This is my first time seeking help... I have been cutting since I was about 14. I am now 28. I had stopped for 3 years. Unfortunately I have started again and things are getting worse. I don't know if I'll be able to stop this time. So here I am looking for help.... I'm not sure what to do or where to go. I can't afford therapy.
