I've seen this sort of thing on a couple of other sites.

It's to put your accomplishments, relapses or anything you want it to be

you could post every day if you need to or once a month, no accomplishments too small.

and if you relapse, you are strong. and you can do this.

I will try get back to as many people as I can and if you need message me on here.

if this doesn't work oh well, but id like to see it work.

Hope you are liking all the cute cat pictures! [v] here is your next clue, where can you introduce yourself if you're new to the subcommunity this month?

Three days is great, I know it may not seem like a lot, but when you're trying to stop, each day is a monumental amount of time. Keep up the good work!

2 months clean but the urges are getting worse and I'm trying so hard to keep it together. I know I'll feel guilty if I relapse.

2 months is amazing! I know at certain points the urges get really bad. It helps if you have an alternative to self-harm so that when you do get urges, you can at least have an emotional outlet! Here's a list of alternatives to self-harm:http://www.teenhelp.org/forums/f12-self-harm/t9418-alternatives-self-harm/

If you do happen to relapse, don't beat yourself up. See at as you tripping during a race and you just have to get up and keep going toward the finish line. I wish you the best!

Thank You :) I will look at the alternatives, I've never tried them so maybe they will help.

Relapses are part of the road to recovery ,no need to feel guilty if you relapse ,you should be proud to last so long :0 Making lots of efforts pays off :)

The urges will be there, you just have to find something that distracts you, I use to flip at the flick of a switch, one minute I'd be fine and I'd get frustrated and tear my arm to shreds. I found that crying is a good substitute, also when ur really angry or upset and the urges are strong cry and beat the fuck out of a pillow, it helps. I promise!
