Dear Lorelie, Was thinking of you today, thinking about your pain and tears. Did the songs from Regretter help some? They helped me a lot. My AD accused me of taking her Seraquil, so sad, she yelled at me, I felt terrible, I couldn't he her, except look for them which I'm sure she misplaced, she is a cutter too. Did you get outside today? I really miss your sunshine coming thru the keyboard. Smile tonight before you go to bed, have some happy dreams, will post you in the morning. Good night sweet Lorelie! TF
Aww, Lorelei, you are such a warm presence on SR. I'm so sorry you're going through this but glad that you felt able to come here and share with us about it. I also have a history of cutting so I know how difficult it is to stop but I also know it is possible to with the right support.
Your psych and doctor are right - it is okay to feel scared and vulnerable. This is hard for us to accept because we've been pushing down such feelings with alcohol for so long.
Can you get away from your ex for good? Go no contact with them? If you continue engaging with them and ending up in fights, the pattern just repeats itself again and again.

Lorelei, my friend, and I call you that because of all of the help you have given me.... Please be careful and get out of there and away from him as soon as possible. I am not familiar with the UK, but they must have shelters for people to immediately get away from abusive roommates.
I hope you can feel the outpouring of love and concern as you read these posts. WE ALL LOVE YOU. The fact that there is one person too involved with your daily life, who does not feel about you the way we do, just means there is one person - and all that goes with him - that you are far better without.
Be safe, stay sober, put yourself at the top of your priority list.
Sorry that sounded a little preachy.... Just know that we are here for you, however we can help.

Sweet, Lorelei. If you're staying with that monster because of money... It's only money and ten times that amount would not be worth it. Get as far away from that a$$hole as you can. In Salt Lake City there is a battered women's shelter that has helped countless women get out and stay out of abusive situations. I'm sure there is something similar where you live. Seek out help SOMEWHERE! As for the cutting, I have no reference there, but I have a feeling that no matter how many of us beg you to stop, it won't help. You're living in a hell-hole right now. Get out and away from that demon you live with NOW! If you are believing the thought that it's not possible...question that thought. You are believing something that simply isn't true! Sending much much love from across the pond.
