i've not really done it majorly for ages.

but today i did it really badly on my arm- and nearly got caught doing it too.

guess i've been feeling so bad about everything that i just eventually did it

it felt sooo good.

Hi there.

I'm sorry to hear that you're in a rough patch, and that you SI'd. But don't think of this as the end of that time of "not doing it majorly for ages." Think of it as a speedbump, not a dead end in the road.

I hope whatever is bothering you will come to pass, and God bless.

Hugs,
Harley

Bless your heart...it must. Are you seeing a T, by chance? I know you mentioned no support, but...

I'm sorry to hear that.

I couldn't say if it makes sense or not...I personally do not understand it, but I'm rather young, so I haven't had that experience yet. But I would tell you that you owe it to yourself to not give up, and keep trying...that is the best anyone could expect of you.

Please be safe and careful. We all know how one time can escalate until you're fighting to break the habit yet again. I really hope things get better for you.

And Harley, I love the "speed bump" analogy. I'll remember that.

anxiety issues was the last thing we were working on.

5 therapists that have not helped is enough.

I guess we will have to agree to disagree.

You make no progress on anything with any of the T's?

Maybe you are just running away (from your issues, therapy intimacy, etc.)?
