Need help; want to cut

I did something bad, and I feel like I need to be punished. I went shopping on our emergency credit card, and I haven’t told my husband how much. He knows I did it, he just doesn’t know how much money I spent- and I spent several hundred. I’m so ashamed, and I feel like I betrayed his trust. He mentioned how much I spent, but I just said, “You don’t want to know.” I want to punish myself. I feel like I deserve it. I know I shouldn’t, but I don’t know how not to. Please help; I need ideas to avoid this and change my thinking.

Calm down.

Two wrongs don’t make a right. Don’t cut yourself.

@Happy_H Please don’t cut or harm yourself.
You will regret it later.
Make sure you contact your pdoc if the urge continues.

Try to settle down and regroup.

Just return the stuff if it’s bothering you that much. Don’t hurt yourself

Thanks, y’all. It’s nice to know that y’all don’t want me to. I feel sick to my stomach over this. @TomCat I can’t return anything because it was on last sale. I’m just screwed. I feel so hopeless.

You dont deserve punishment, especially one so harsh as cutting yourself.

Would you tell a friend that they deserve to cut themselves if they did what you did? I wouldnt, so why dont you deserve the same compassion you would show a friend?

I’m just over a year of being cut free, and I know how strong the urges can be, but you deserve so much more than cutting yourself.

Just wanted to let y’all know I didn’t do it. Y’all really helped. @Hemy, you are completely right. And congrats on being cut-free! @Jesse25 I once cut myself with a Gerber knife and had to get stitches on two of the cuts. One is about two inches long, and the other is about one and a half. I hate having those scars. My kids see that.
