AW - BF is being sneaky...

    I don't understand what else I could be doing in my capacity except locking myself away in in-patient, which I do not want to do. I cannot isolate myself from people, because the more alone I make myself, the more alone I am in my brain and thats when all of the bad thoughts come into play.

    In case you are still reading, just stepping in to say that in inpatient, you can't isolate yourself, so if that is what is holding you back from doing it, don't let it.  I've been inpatient and it is the total opposite of isolation.  Yes, you are pulled out of the stresses of your everyday life but this is a totally good thing because then you are put into classes, therapy sessions, activities that help you start doing the real working and focussing on you. 

    Based on what you are saying here, when you are alone is when the bad thoughts come.  So you are trying to fill that void with your bf and the prospect of an engagement- anything to try to make you feel a glimmer of happy amongst all the black.  I know, I've been there- I am a cutter too.  But filling the void and trying to block the pain with someone else is never going to work and you will end up with divorce #2 in the future. 

    Suck it up and go inpatient, that is really your only hope (sorry to say).  I left my job in the middle of the day to be admitted because I was that bad.  Your life is more important than anything else.
