I'm sorry you're dealing with so much, it sounds like a real struggle. I don't think just because there's no death or injuries means that a year can't be really rough and quite difficult.

I understand about the burning and cutting. I have had struggles with those, too, since I was 12 years old. I have been self-harm free for over a year, but it took a loss for me to realize how bad it was getting.

For me, the way I stopped self-harming myself was that I found a reason I wanted to stay away from it. I still get the urges, but I always remember that reason and it helps me through the rough times.
