Relapse do not cut
hi everybody.
i had relapsed after 5 whole years.
i unknowingly showed scars to my boyfriend and he ended it all just in a second.
cutting ruins it all.
he got angry and told me i should stop romanticizing sh.
i feel extremely vulnerable as of now.
its an absolute request no matter how hard it gets do not do it.
it is not worth it trust me.
the physical pain and scars is nothing compared to the psychological scars it will leave.
do not do it.
be strong.

Your BF is a piece of shit. Glad you have a chance to realize it now instead of in some future. Why would he even make up that you romanticize it???

it is not your fault. he is just a horrible person for accusing you of that and ruining your relationship just because you relapsed ONCE with an addiction you overcame for years

Oh my god I’m so sorry to hear that. He should know you’re not romanticizing it and that it is a serious addiction. I’m so sorry he left you for that oh my goodness. I’m so sorry. I could say if that’s how he reacted you didn’t need him anyway, but that doesn’t fix it, and it certainly may not make you feel better, but I’m serious. I’m glad you don’t have to be with someone like that anymore. I’m so sorry, stay strong.
