((((((((lyn)))))))))))) that conscious decision is HUGE. you've done well. You knew where you needed to be and how and made the decision to do that over the urge. That's big stuff. Major super gold star.
(((i too wish i could just turn off the urges)))
also thinking of you!!!

Please try and give yourself credit for what you did. You kept from cutting. That is great and a hard thing to do.

Well done Lyn for stopping, thats great that you recognised the feeling before you went any further, not alot of people can do that. i just want to "go away" i just want to "go away"

We all have these urges, theyre not something that can just go away just like 'that'.... but you can work on it. By stopping, you learnt to control your urges, and thats a big step.... just try and keep it up

Take care, babyg xXx

You are doing good. Stopping the urges from coming is a day-to-day struggle sometimes, and it can increase with extra stressors. What you did was a good job... stopping before you caused yourself lasting harm is an excellent step.

Please be kind to yourself, you are loved and cared about here.

That's incredible stuff! You are obviously a person with high standards and a great set of morals. Well done for recognising the fact that you had other responsibilities and needed to stop before you started. You are obviously a good person and I truly witsh the best for you. Thank you for sharing that!

Take care! i just want to "go away"
