Last year I quit, and felt comfortable with the fact that I would never self-injure again. Sometimes this felt impossible, but over time it really did start to get easier. The little goal I had for myself was to make it to a year SI-free. I made it to about 11 months – and then had a breakdown and felt that it was the only way to deal with my problems.
I’ve SIed a few times since then (not many, but some when I really needed it)... and I regret it so much. Last year at this time I was sure I would never harm myself again – how things get so reversed, I’ll never know. But I’m planning to stop again, as soon as I feel ready and comfortable again, I will stop. Hopefully for good this time.
