Many of us use our body to convey the word we don't know how to speak.
I hope you don't feel I'm not without empathy for her plight. I've dedicated most of my life to it. My post was that I had finally seen that I had anger surrounding it. That was new for me. And I don't feel it was that unhealthy. I cannot pretend to understand cutting. I don't do it, I've never wanted to, so who am I to say give it up and give it up now. (I do know that her wrist was not a cutting episode, but cutting has played a part in her life and my relationship with her, so that is why I bring it up.)

It is hard for me to understand. Hard for me to ignore. Hard for me to deal with. Hard for me to bring up. Hard for me to have any feelings surrounding, because it's about her, not me. Everything is. Everything. I'm just frustrated. And that sprouts from a mind not being able to express itself effectively. She'll be here in about 45 minutes, and we'll be happy to see eath other and have a great time. I think this isn't the place to post these things. I just needed to get it out. I'm sorry. I think I came off all wrong.

I am trying. Honest.
