So glad you stopped!: It was a very good thing to stop cutting. I hope other problems also have improved. To reassure you: prior loss of blood has been replaced to normal some time ago. That's not a danger to you. To warn you: even having won the cutting struggle, you need to consider therapist help in establishing healthy ways to avoid and deal w/ problems. Life has them - you will face them - it's good to know how.
