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?

Well my mom found out I was doing it which made me throw the blades away... I'd say around 3 weeks or a month?

I've been harm-free for over 9 years now after doing it for 7 years. In the beginning, it was nearly impossible to stop. I always wanted to cut at nights and I would tell myself, "if you still want to cut in the morning than do so." I would force myself to wait to the next day when I woke up and I didn't have the urge anymore. When the urges were really bad I would draw on my arms or legs in red marker.

I still have urges every once in awhile, but it's a matter of distracting yourself with positive activities. Good luck to all of you!
