Hard to believe but I think it's been 10.5 months!
I've started to dig deeper into my emotions when the feeling & urge turns to the surface. I try to focus on the aftermath. What will come of this if I do decide to give into the urge & cut. Where will this lead?
Asking myself some serious questions has put the urges off & dig deeper into my reasoning.
Hopefully I can continue on this path. One year would be awesome.

Day 3 for me. No interest in self-harming today.

And not much. Trying two-fifths a capsule tomorrow.
Will read on endocrinology and neurobiology to look for some hypotheses.

I think I am at about 6 weeks now. Just a few vague urges, kind of like a muscle memory more than any real desire.

nothing really 'helps' i just give in or i don't. sometimes i have to sit on my hands. or 'self-harm' in more minimal ways like snapping rubber band on wrist though i avoid that now because i started to go too far with that.

At least 2 months so far. Every time I have the urge and I don't give in, I am teaching myself that I don't have to act on those urges and thoughts. The urges have gotten weaker and weaker, and I've had some testing times of late, so my ability to resist acting has strengthened over this short amount of time.

Only one. I had a stretch of almost a month but yesterday things got so hard that it felt safer to cut then to not. How pathetic is that?

Good job Mully! No matter what happened yesterday, no one can take away that fine stretch of a month. You can start another long run.
