it's almost been 2 months since my mom found out that i cut. since then, i haven't done anything to intentionally harm myself. i've actually improved some, in my mind. i'm eating more...and that's good. my little ways of proving to myself that what my T said was wrong.
everything's been pretty much okay...until last night. i slipped up. i feel so bad about it. but it's nothing really, just a few scratches. just thinking of it now disgusts me b/c of the rush and the feeling of relief it gave me. so instead of doing more damage, i console with you. thanks for listening. there's other people around that deserve more help than me. well...now i'll go back to hiding in my long sleeves and pants. if only it wasn't 97 degrees outside. sucks to live in texas.

Well congratulations for the time that you spent not cutting. I can understand that a slip up can really wreak havoc on one's sense of progress, but that fact that you were able to take one day at a time for so long is something to be proud of.

hey it's totally common to slip up and si again. i know it feels awful when you do. i had a relapse after two years clean, and i totally freaked out afterward!
but you can pick yourself up again, and dust yourself off again, and you can don't have to keep si-ing just because you did it one more time. best wishes to you! Angela (SC) -comfort the disturbed and disturb the comfortable-

I had almost 4 months. Oh well. Take this as an oppurtunity to look at what triggered you and work on that. It is pointing you in the direction of deeper healing. Good luck and don't beat yourself up too much.
