What helped me stay strong is positive thinking, mantras and relaxing and leaning away from distress when I first start to feel it.
@communicativePond1728 That is great, thank you pond. That sounds like you've gained valuable lessons from your journey so far. Please continue to keep up your positive attitude and determination. We all appreciate you and all steps you taking in this healing journey.
@ASilentObserver I'm pretty much back to day one but each failure means a comeback.
@ASilentObserver thanks for posting stuff like this and supporting people so much. It's awesome.
@ASilentObserver
I'm self harm for I have no idea how many days. I'm proud to say that the urge hasn't even crossed my mind since November.
@ASilentObserver

four or five days
@LoveMyMoonflowers yayyyy that is awesome, moon.Congratulations on four- five days without SH. It definitely takes a lot of determination and strength to stay away from SH, and I am proud of you for all your small steps. How did you feel when you were close to relapsing?
@ASilentObserver
idk how i felt 😞 it was all too much. idk idk idk…
i’m sorry
Im a day clean from self harm I have MMD( major depressive disorder) and BPD .
What helped me stay strong is that knowing that friends here are to support me and they will be sad if relapsed and thinking to myself its not worth it you've been clean for a year before you can do it again a coping mechanism, I use is removing items from room in would hurt myself with , watching a favourite tv program ,any type of craft . A supportive person friend a turn to is josiah cooper without him would struggle thank you coopie ❤

@ASilentObserver
i am sharing this to give everyone some hope. I am self harm free for 5,208 days. So you don’t have to do the math, that’s a little over 14 years! I don’t even think about it anymore. There is hope that you can overcome your self harming behaviors. I am proof of that!
Kristynsmama
@Kristynsmama That is awesome, Kristy Congratulations on 5208 days. What has helped you stay on this journey?
I don’t know what exactly has helped the most. But first of all, I have a good support system that has encouraged me along the way. Secondly, I tried really hard and I wanted to be free of self harm more than anything else. And I was willing to do anything to stop.
@Kristynsmama
Well done congrats
i’ve been sh free for 2 days now
@LoveMyMoonflowers Very cool and congratulations Moon. We are all here thinking and rooting for you. Keep taking your small steps. I believe in you
@ASilentObserver

@ASilentObserver
I'm sh free since january, but in the last few days it's coming back. I honestly don't think I can resist much longer. Things are stressing me out for a while now and I don't really have an other option to releave myself from it and since it's been so long that I didn't do it, the preassure grows every day.
I don't want to do it because of my family and I will dissapoint them again, but there's no other option. I can't scream, I can't justs run outside and go anywhere, because of other reasons but I feel trapped here in this life. Trapped in myself, because I don't do anything against it and I'm not brave enough to do anything. I just don't want to live like this anymore...
@SoulSun808 Thank you for opening up and i am proud of you for being SH free since Jan. But it seems like you are feeling overwhelmed by the pressures in your life right now. Feeling trapped and unable to see a way out can be difficult. Please know you aren't alone in this and we are all here with you to listen to and support you, Soul. Is there anyone you feel you could talk to about how you're feeling? Also, you can share anything and everything with us as well.
@ASilentObserver thank you very much for your concern. I can't tell anybody about this because nobody know about the Sh I did. And I don't think they would understand, even after I tried to quit. So yes, you're right there is much pressure on me, mostly of myself and I don't know how much longer this can go on like this.
@SoulSun808 you are feeling trapped by this secret and the pressure you've put on yourself. The weight of keeping this hidden is weighing heavily on you. How do you feel about seeking support from someone you trust?
@ASilentObserverIm very insecure about telling people that know me in real life and don't knwo what I went trough and if I don't explain myself properly they wont understand me. So I would have to tell them all of it because thats the only way I would feel good about it and I'm not sure if I could do that.
Like go through everything again. It was hard to go through it alone but in the end I did it until this point and idk maybe it could go on like this a little longer, until im more confident about sharing this topic.
But I also know that I have to tell them anywhen, so maybe I should not wait too long, because they could be mad about it...
@ASilentObserver
Clean since February 1st, but am currently here distracting myself from my thoughts. Im thinking about doing it now but don't think I actually will. Lately I've been feeling like this a lot but not actually doing it. But yay 9 weeks clean is I think my new record
@cierrasoccer196 That is awesome and a great achievement, Cierra. Congratulations on nine weeks without sh. We are all here for you to support. Keep taking your small steps.
@ASilentObserver
Thanks, it's just hard to be easy on myself sometimes <3
@cierrasoccer196 I understand that, it is hard but please know you are not alone in this.
