1. I dserve better than harming myself.

2.Not harming myself breaks the abuse cycle-my abuser hurt me back when I was little and had no choice, but now I can stop the abuse by no longer harming myself.

3.Self harm is the voice of my perpetrator saying I am no good. If I harm myself, then part of my is agreeing with my perpetrator.

4.If I don't harm myself, then I know the pain I feel isn't my fault.

5.If I harm myself, the pain from it will become confusd with the pain which my abuser caused me. I don't want to be confused about who caused my pain.

6.I don't want to have to blame myself for hurting myself. Blame belongs to my abuser, not me.

Now if only I could practice what I preach.......
