"Once A Cutter, Always A Cutter"
Folder:
The Past That No Longer Remains People always believe that,
"Once a cutter, always a cutter."
That's not really true.
People who don't know you.
People who judge you.
Might look at you as a cutter,
even though you've quit.
But that don't matter....
What matters is how you see yourself.
If you see yourself as a cutter,
then you are a cutter.
If you don't see yourself as a cutter,
then you're not a cutter.
"Once a cutter, always a cutter,"
that's a bullshit statement.
Now, don't get me wrong...
I used to believe it myself.
I don't anymore.
I see the truth.
I see who I am.
I see what I've become.
I know the truth.
I know who I am.
I know what I've become.
I'm no longer a cutter.
I am how I see me.
Just like you're how you see yourself.
Don't believe that,
"Once a cutter, always a cutter" statement.
It's not true.
Not unless you want it to be true.
Cutters loathe themselves,
Cutters loathe themselves, feed on others' disapproval and seek solace in shame. I think this, but how would i know. Never tried it myself.

I think for some, it's not
I think for some, it's not that they loathe themselves, it's more of the cutting they loathe. But it's like a drug, you get addicted to it and then it's hard to let go of. I never fed on others disapproval nor for attention. It was my release from things going on. It was drug. I'd reach out to friends trying to find a way or advice to help me quit, but it never worked. Cuz I couldn't get my mind to align with my heart on letting it go. It took God to set me free from it, but it also took strong will for me to not give in to the urges when they did happen. People that never cut, they don't really understand it and they don't see it for what it is. It's a drug, a disease and a demon in one. It's hard to beat when you at that point of being addicted to it.....
