This happens when I get the house to myself, it's like I want to take advantage of the time I have alone by self harming without worry of interruption. My roommate is gone for the weekend. The weird part about this though is that I do not really identify as someone who is a self-injurer. I have cut twice and burned once...that is the extent. Yet when I got out of the shower tonight and looked in the mirror I instantly knew "the spot" I wanted to go after. I don't know why. I don't feel particularly anxious. It is certainly a strong urge...but I know I need to sit on it a while and see if it will go away. I guess I'm just posting to tell on myself or something.

I can relate to being alone being a trigger. When you self harmed before, did you feel better after it? Maybe you want to feel that again.
