Harming while in a relationship
How do you navigate self harming while dating someone? I opened up to my girlfriend a while back that I had relapsed when she discovered some cuts on my legs. She made me promise in the moment that if I felt like I was gonna hurt myself that I should come to her instead. And well, I’m sitting here a month later with fresh cuts and a lot of guilt.
I’m scared to tell her I did it again, but I don’t know if I can really hide it either. I feel like I’m a terrible partner.
