I'm so thrilled to have gotten so many replies on this thread! I still haven't cut. Today, I've been occupied and around other people all day. So, I haven't.
Shattered_sanity, thank you. I don't really see myself as an inspiration or anything. If anything, I need the inspiration. Lol. I hope that this is helping a lot of people, though.
Keep up the good work, guys! I proud of you all. Stay strong! <3 -Hugs to all-

Because it was one month yesterday! Scary scary, but good too, I want to keep going and start counting in months, not weeks (or days)!
Thanks for this!

Im up to a month too. Well done. I like the idea of counting in months, I hadn't thought of doing that.

Thanks for this!

If my driving licence get's taken away from me then I need to be stable for 6 months before I can get it back. If I si there is no way my pdoc will say I'm stable.

Today's Reason:
I didn't cut today, because...
He knows me better than anyone else, and - if he thinks I can be strong - I can. And I will.

What is the reason you did not/will not cut today?
Congratulations on five days clean! Please stay strong!

I haven't cut recently because I don't want to worry the children I babysit. I try to hide my scars to the best of my ability, but sometimes they catch a glimpse of them by mistake and ask me what happened. I never tell them, of course, but it always makes me second guess my urges to cut.
They always tell me to "be more careful", so I'm trying to do just that!

I babysit, too, Roseyrabbit. Children really are a great, precious inspiration to some of us. I've not cut, yet, because people are noticing, and I don't want to put anything I love in jeopardy. Priorities.

My therapist is on vacation til the 18th and before she left she said she was worried about the severity of my cutting lately. Today's reason is that I don't want her to feel guilty for going on vacation.

OriginalMe, I think we're counting from the same day? Lets keep going, we are doing great! I ordered my 'one month free' bracelet from recoveryourlife, saw the link on here. I want to wear it, and hopefully that will be a good motivator.
