5 out of 5 people (100%) think this is worth doing.
(What is RSS?)
How I did it: I realized how much it was (or could) hurt my friends and family if they saw me doing this. Saw how much I hated myself and how miserable I was when I noticed one of my friends cutting and experienced all these feelings myself. After I saw the scars and marks on her arm I vowed not to harm myself anymore. Although it helped temporarily the feelings always came back, even worse than before. Talking to my friend who was cutting helped convinced me to stop, we both supported each other.
Lessons & tips: Strength, more strength and belief that you are worth something to SOMEONE. Because you are. I promise
Resources: Rubber bands-if the urge ever got really bad I'd snap these against my wrists. It helped a bit
its bin about 9 months and still going strong my girlfriend has helped me a lot if it was not for her i dont no how f@#ked up i would be. i still get the erg to do it when i get angry,upset or lonly but im learning to ignor the temptation the feeling.
One year and nine months was Sunday… I think that sometimes I stop telling my close friends how far I am because I don’t think they care, and sometimes so that if I started again, they wouldn’t think about/know the difference.
I don’t want to cut again. I don’t. I think I’m getting closer and closer to being “cured,” but at the same time, it feels like the closer I get to two years, the harder the struggle remains.
I’m working on it. The tempation is there, but I am very close to being rid of this “disease” this “darkness” this “pain.”
The 27th marks a year and two months.
It is possible to fight this addictive urge! If anybody wants help with this, you can join my group support website at groups.msn.com/lovingarms. I’d love to help.
I picked up a razor today and traced old scars. I am just so lost right now. I wish I could see myself from within. I wish I could be different.
I’m going to mark this done. It’s been a lil over a year now, and the last time was only a momentary slip from a good 2 years, so I have been coping better. I’m still working on the self love part of this goal though, which is deeper and more complicated.
