I'm at 5 weeks and 2 days. Setting new records!!
I hope so. If I can find something else that is as satisfying.

Happy for you.

5 weeks and 4 days. Depression has definitely decided to hit me harder than usual right now, though...so it's getting more difficult to make it through the urges.

I did it Sunday and I want to do it tonight even though my T told me to take a break from it. She made me angry so this is a twisted way to rebel and feel in control.

It's been three days. I cut multiple times for the first time in years. Six to be exact and two pins jammed into my wrist. I regret my weakness.

I suspect that you are thinking of her birthday.

I'm so sorry for your pain and loss.

I'm not sure of the exact length of time, a week maybe. But I just wanted to say that I avoided self-injuring on Friday by employing some DBT distress tolerance. That's a first for me.
