How to stop cutting myself
How I did it: Is cutting a life long battle? Or Is it true that you really do grow out of it?
I feel when people cut it is becasue they feel like a caged animal being attacked, with no where else to go. Being unable to fight the compulsion and seeing No other possible alternative other than self mutilation.
But there are other alternatives. Being such an impulsive person, It shows great strength and will power to overcome that urge.
In the past 2 years I have not resorted to cutting as my first defense or instinct during troubled times. but there are periods where i am more susceptible to losing control.
I can barely see (most of) my scars anymore, they are a mere memory that seems like it was yesterday, but it was not. I am stronger now. I can leave the past behind, and take what I have learned with me.
Lessons & tips: Impulse control!!!! I know how difficult it can be but you must fight the urge, distract yourself long enough for the feeling to pass. be determined to overcoming your weakness knowing that you are strong enough too.
