I thought since other forums have this, this could be a place to check in how you're doing each day as far as urges go and how you're dealing with them. Today I've been doing alright, no urges. I think I got it out of my system the other night. Oh well, I'm still going to try to stop this behavior.

I like =]

Only had thoughts about it twice and urges once. But haven't actually done it for at least a week, so i'm getting better at managing the urges responsibly - I think.

I have had urges. But I am too physically exhausted to do anything about it.

I'm heading up (possibly into hypomania) and my urges haven't shown up for a while now. I was scratching at my wrist with a pin a couple weeks ago but I have not done that since then so it's been a while

Terrible thoughts today. Can't make them stop. Luckily, I'm not at home, so I can't act on them. I think I'm spiraling doooooown again. I hate this. Freaking A.

a few hundred more cuts (very shallow, not deep)........ just a few minutes ago.

Not even really a "reason". It had just been two days, so it was time.

Having some strong urges tonight, some things going on in my life are stressing me out so much. I'll try to use one of my coping skills to deal with it, hopefully it works.

I want nothing more than to self harm in any way possible but my fingers feel numb and I feel ill so I am failing to see the point.

Hang in there Teen Idle. I'm sorry to hear you are feeling like this but it will pass. The urges will pass.

Self harmed in a worse fashion that I usually do last night. Won't mention it, as I don't want to give ideas. It.. definitely had the effect I thought it would. I'm still regretting it today. But it gave me a strange kind of realization at the same time. Funny how life works.

No urges today! First time in a long time, starting to finally feel stable. Hopefully this lasts

Don't get sucked in because it takes hold of you and controls you, be strong.

Sending 's and my thoughts to everyone needing them at the moment. It seems like a rough time for a lot of people.

Hang in there I promise that the urges will pass again and it will get easier.
