I stopped once for 11 months, I think I was just generally happier. Since then I've had odd few months here and there, once because I was scared of losing my bf at the time. The other times...I'm not really sure. I think the urges became easier to manage and I was more in control...

For me, I'd SIed a couple of times in a few days, discussed it with my therapist, and said "well as I have no good reason for injuring myself, and as I prefer not to do things without a good reason, I'll stop" and then it was 'easy' as I'd promised I'd stop, I just had to keep that promise. I try to never break a promise.
Of course when I did SI myself a few months later I felt really bad about it because I'd broken the promise.

I even bought a "kit" of all the things I need, so not just a little fail, a massive big fail.

One year, nine months.. I haven't felt the need to harm myself in about ten or eleven months and I am a much happier person now than I was before. I've had a few dreams, but I never acted upon them.

It's something very hard to stop doing, and I am proud of all of you for trying.

Red75 you are doing so so well! Congratulations!

I know from your other post that you are really down on yourself and really hurting from that. I'm sorry. But I do not agree that you deserve physical pain. Not at all!

Still zero. My T was OK even though I'd broken my promise.

Press the reset button, I'm back at zero. At least it isn't every day and I'm waiting when the urge comes on.

I'm glad you are seeing the positive things instead of focusing on only the slip.
