For me, one reason not to self-injure is that my life, all of our lives, are valuable! Life is worth living, even when I
feel that it is not. Feelings are temporary, and I can choose to live and choose to change the way I perceive life. I do have a purpose, and I want to fulfill that purpose and give back to those who have stuck with me through the hard times - not reward them with self-injury or abandonment. To do so is to do the very thing I most fear that my loved ones will do to me. I want to love and shine light into the lives of others rather than the darkness I have fought for so long. I want to be a conqueror over the bondage to self-injury!
Thanks everyone for the encouragement on this forum!
