 it will go away, someday it definitely will. You are doing a good job of not giving in to the urges, you are stronger than the **** urges. Besides, SI won't make you feel more in control, the fact that you fight the urge to SI means you are in control of things.

I'm sorry that you are going through a rough time - sending you lots of doggy hugs
 the best medicine out there  There are a few things I want you to know. First, this will pass although it does not feel like it right now. I know this may sound like a cliche but sometimes it's going through the storm that helps us feel better. I know a few months ago when I was going through it, it did not feel that way but I was told to stay with the feelings and try to live my life. It has not passed completely but what does...??? I think I am stronger for it and able to see things differently. The other thing I know is that you are an amazing and incredibly wise person. I have read the things that you post for other people and you always are spot on. I wish you could go through your posts and read out loud what you have written and apply them to you, even if you don't believe it right now -  you will. Don't trust the voice inside that is telling you, you can't, it's lying to you big time. I think there is a quieter voice that knows that can get through this and is on your side. (hope that makes sense) A lot of people care about you here, so keep us informed about how you are doing. Last edited by DoggyBonz; Mar 24, 2009 at 07:28 PM. Reason: rephrased something |

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
