I wouldn’t say that I’m in the clear yet, but I cut for the last time in March and I went cold turkey immediately afterward. Luckily I had a lot less stress to deal with, but there were a few times when I almost cut.
So I’m fine, for now. But I doubt I’ll ever be entirely free of the need to cut. At the moment, I’m just hoping that going to a new school and having less family/social stress will keep me from hurting myself again.

I finished The Sound and the Fury a couple of weeks ago, and I found some incredibly inexpensive copies of Absalom, Absalom and Go Down Moses, so I’ll probably read those two soon.

For two weeks I was studying in a different city. Every other morning we would go out and do different activities around town. One morning, I would up interviewing strangers about their jobs. The next week, I found myself asking random people what things they wanted in life, and what they wanted to get rid of. It was an exciting and thought-provoking experience, and I’d definitely do it again.
