Thanks for your thoughts Abby... they do help.
I know some people advocate for the "harm reduction" approach rather than simply advocating that people don't engage in SH. I personally have never found the latter helpful. So thank you for your understanding.
I'm really hopeful that yoga can calm my anxiety that I am currently experiencing. You know that feeling that you have right before you are going to be sick? Thats how I feel right now in relation to self-harm. Here's to hoping that breathing deeply will help it pass.
