I have found a way to SI without anyone knowing it is on purpose and I wonder how long I will get away with it.
It's not even that bad.....but I feel guilty for doing it.

I also found away to SI that noone notices, but it just makes me si more often, I really hope it's different for you. Imo it doesn't really matter if you"get away with it" it's still you who hurts and it's not ok. Take good care of yourself

Do you have a therapist? Does anyone know that you SI???
Please try to stay safe. There are other coping methods. Have you tried reading the sticky: why you shouldn't SI???
Take care,

Thank you, everyone!
I talked with my T today. My hubby and her both know I SI, but my hubby doesn't know what I have been doing lately. It's not THAT bad because it's just making my kitty agitated enough to scratch me. It's not like I used to do. No excuse, 3velniai is right, it still hurts me....not ok!

Anyways, we figured out that there is sooo much that is out of control in my life, that I need to control something and that is the only thing I can control right now.

I am going to talk to my PNP, too because she upped my meds almost 2 weeks ago and I have been having more SI thoughts than I have in almost 9 months. There are other things coming up, too....like being hungry all the time, etc. That's another story!

For right now (at this very moment) I am doing ok....the feelings of SI are..not there.

Dance59326 - I will read that sticky...I didn't even notice it!
