Comments on: Interview on Self-Injury http://www.nakedmedicine.com/interview-on-self-injury Let's Face It: Medicine is Business! -- Hosted by Jane Chin, Ph.D. @janechin #pharma Tue, 23 Aug 2011 20:17:55 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Vanessa http://www.nakedmedicine.com/interview-on-self-injury/comment-page-1#comment-3355 Vanessa Thu, 17 May 2007 22:20:16 +0000 http://www.nakedmedicine.com/?p=23#comment-3355 Thank you so much for bringing much needed attention to a disorder that is very much misunderstood and under researched. As someone who has struggled with SI for more than 30 years, I know how difficult it can be to find professionals trained in this area, or to find appropriate resources. I believe that as more people come forward with this disorder, doctors and scientists will realize that there is much to learn about SI and those who are struggling will feel more confidence to seek out the help they need. I have a blog wherein I am sharing my story of recovery and would love to receive comments from viewers! http://comes-the-light.livejournal.com Thank you so much for bringing much needed attention to a disorder that is very much misunderstood and under researched.

I don't do it often cause my husband doesn't want me to hurt myself but I still do it sometimes. I was wondering where the worst and most dangerous place is to cut, mainly cause I am afraid of hitting a big vein and being unable to stop the bleeding. I cut on my feet and ankles...is that a bad place to cut? But at the same time...it's the only place I can hide it....I could never cut my wrists or arms or any where other than my feet where I wear socks all the time. I would appreciate your advice...thanks.. Skye I have a question..I am a self injurer…I guess you could calll repetitive.
