Berries, I am on my break so forgive me for being brief.

Please dont hurt yourself - look at the things you can do not to hurt yourself at the top of the page of threads - do some exerciese - snap an elastic band as hard as you can on your wrist - you know you will feel worse afterwards - please try to find another way to cope with this - do somthing that doesnt involve self harm - draw on your arm if you must but dont hurt yourself

the internal pain can be so hard to bear sometimes - thats when you can try distraction techniques - hold some ice in your hand - pet a cat ro dog if you have one - go for a walk - talk to a friend on the phone - I have to go - but please take care of you - be kind to you -
