Umm.. No.

My mom thinks that I cut because of a genetic trait. She thinks that if she stayed in my life then I would be different. I'd be a better person.
She went through some of the same things (like cutting) and she thinks she could have stopped me.

I don't know what's wrong with me, but if I'm honest, I find it a little bit offensive when someone tells me that they think they can stop me or that it's a genetic trait, or that they don't like it.
I'm not... proud of my self harm, but it's a very close part of me and I couldn't ever just let it go. It's the only thing that has helped me survive so long, in a way. Without it, I don't know what I'd be like. Maybe I wouldn't be a cutter, or whatever it is that I am. But I just refuse to think that she could change it. I refuse to think that I need to stop.
I don't really see a problem with my self harm, as long as I don't get caught. If I were to get caught, I know what would happen. But it's the only constant in my life... and I am not in a place to want to stop..
What's wrong with me?

Or not even me, exactly. But my mom, Cimiron, my dad, my family, my (nonexistent) friends, everyone. Nobody can stop me. The only one who'd have the best chance of stopping me is Cimiron, and I don't want to stop.
Does anyone else find it offensive when people remark on your self harm or anything? Or is it just me?
