i did the same thing too, with the rubberband. and it feels as though you are supplementing one form of SI for another...

but think of it this way... heroin addicts will start drinking TONS of coffee or smoking cigs after they go through with withdrawal... we are always looking for something to be addicted to, but snapping a band is a whole lot better than cutting or burning, you know?

silver lining! keep us all updated! and i agree with jaq, check out the stickies. they really helped me

HUGS FROM ME!
