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?

It was like that for me too. As I got older I started cutting deeper but it also seems like the cuts from my teens went away super quick. Now in my 20s they scar up and stay forever. All the more reason to quit...

I have the same experience. The longer I do this the more scars I leave. To me it seems like I'm becoming too comfortable with this behavior and it scares me sometimes.

I still have scars from 6 months ago, and even while using cream to make scars go away, it barely helps.

One slip up doesn't invalidate all that you've achieved already. 7 months is a long time and to only do it once in such a long time is a big accomplishment. Don't be too hard on yourself. You are stronger than I am.

Think about how amazing one month will feel, strive to make those simple goals and increase it as the days go by! Stay strong!

Couple of months, but I'm scared that these new antidepressants will make me relapse...
