Hey UM, Sorry to hear that you had a set back, I don't cut but I often have my own set backs in my own illness, I had one on Monday and I felt really bad about it for a number of days. But it is just a set back, congratualtions on going a year without cutting, congratulations on sharing your set back and not hiding and I am sure that you have now learnt a little bit more about what triggers you. It can be a shock to be doing really well and to be managing ourselves fairly successfully and then have an 'episode' (I love it when shrinks call them episodes sounds so tidy) feels like their is a sleeping demon in our minds that can wake up at any moment but of course its just us leanring to manage our own illness. Hang in there UM and you are not alone, i really feel for you, its pretty tough sometimes but you can do it and sharing does help, hang in there!:ghug2
