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?

Going on four years. It's hard but not impossible and if you have the will and determination to do it, it can be done. Self harm doesn't benefit you but it is addictive. It realises the same hormones in your brain as chocolate, music, and sex. So it's pleasurable much like those things. And just like any addiction, you can overcome it if you will it so and take the steps to get there.

I haven't counted but it's been a while because it was in the college bathroom and college is over now. I'd estimate it to be 6 or 7 weeks now. It's summer and wearing long sleeves would arouse suspicion. I had a bad urge last night but I spoke to my brother and by the time I was alone again, the urge had faded enough that I felt safe.

I think I've been about 4 months without hurting myself. Now I have fallen again, but I hope I can last longer without doing it again :)

That's okay. Keep going. Sometimes I feel the urge to do it. It's been months for me. Try coloring on your self with washable marker, or hold an ice cube in your hand until it melts. (: those both have worked. Stay strong.
