Oh sweetie.
Nothing you say is empty, gilb, cliche, or anything like that. We can tell it's straight from your heart. =]
I often feel the same way. I mean, how am I suppose to support people, to try and encourage them not to SI, when I do it myself?
However, I haven't SIed in three whole weeks. Some credit definitley goes to people like you here on PC!!! Your words do matter, count, and help! I mean it.
Thank you for being here on PC.
I am sure you will find the strength to stop hurting yourself sometime.
