So I just looked back through this thread to see the last time I cut...it was 2nd August!! So 6 weeks! No idea how I managed that, it has been a very long time since I lasted that long, probably at least a year ago.

I can't say that I've been SI free though, there have been times when I've punched things, last time a couple of weeks ago I think.

I also have this terrible habit of picking/chewing the skin around my finger nails, mainly on my thumbs. I have been doing this for as long as I can remember and just see it as a nervous habit really. But the last couple of weeks it has been pretty bad, I just can't seem to stop and it's so sore. Keep telling myself not to do it so I can let my fingers heal but it is constant and I'm not sure what to do about it. Also in the last couple of weeks I've been chewing the inside of my mouth and tongue constantly, another thing I can't seem to stop so my whole mouth is sore too. I don't really know if this is SI or just a compulsion or what. Whatever it is I'm not liking it
