I guess I did not know I even had SI. Maybe it was denial I am not sure why I cause pain to myself. I only pinch and bite and scratch myself when I feel like I am losing control. I feel like that most of the time. It started when I was 16 years old I was young and I had eating disorders I never felt comfortable with myself. I still hurt myself daily and I don’t know how to make the pain I feel inside go away. I have been married for two years now and my husband is always trying to make me go get help. I have been on every anti depressant there is out there. None of it works I think I hurt myself more often. I have just learned that I have SI. My husband was reading up on personal stories and told me to read some and share my personal story. I only have only read about people that have cut and burn themselves am I the only one out there that does biting and pinching? Well that’s all I can share about myself at this time.
