Recovery Check-In (11/26/2019)
Today I've been having a lot of trouble. I started to get very anxious earlier while I was thinking about Thanksgiving, like I always do, and I cut again. I've been having a lot of trouble lately and I am I afraid to admit that I am starting to re-lapse.
Hi there @SereneRainbow286, what a nice nickname you have.
I am sorry to hear you have self-harmed. It does sound like you are going through some tough struggles right now and it is very brave of you to reach out for help. You are not alone and we are here to support you.
Would you like to share some more of what currently feels very triggering for you? Which kind of emotions and feelings are causing you to have urges?
I remember you posting a few days ago about a skill box as a great alternative to self-harm. Would you like to perhaps brainstorm together what new items you could put in it?
I am here to listen to you and I am sending you a tight hug, if that is ok with you
@SereneRainbow286 Same. Iknow how it is. Winter relapse for me. Nut we don't have to relapse! We can fight it by doing the things we know work and by staying home on Thanksgiving lol
