not that I can pinpoint right now. body memories are starting up again, but they feel like they are a result of the urges to self-harm, and not the triggers to them. feeling very vulnerable and needy right now, so maybe that's what it is. I don't like feeling this way, so I tend to mask it to myself with the self-injury. I can't reach out if I'm cutting becuase then I will get in trouble, so then I
have to stuff the neediness down... other than that, I'm not really sure what may be fueling this.
I, also, noticed that things get worse after a "break" from the self-harm... I'm no longer "satisfied" with/by the level it was at, so I need to take it a step higher. ****ing addictions...
