how long have you been self harm free? (possible trigger warning: SH)
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?
5 days today. I want to make it to a week clean by Halloween! Wish me luck! :)
Stay Strong
@TalkativeIntrovert123 Good luck! I've confidence in you!
Good luck u can do this.
I don't have an exact number but I'm guessing 4 or so years. Not that it doesn't mean 1. I haven't thought of it. Or 2. There are other things besides what I used to do?
@Meghlyn25 Aww that's really FANTASTIC! 4 years is awesome and I'm really glad that you managed to fight your urge and I'm really proud of you! Keep it up!
For me, it's been about a year. I've thought about it so much, but all I have to do is take a deep breath and tell myself I will be okay
@ProactiveTalker9367 Great job for the past 1 year! I'm really glad you managed to find a way to help to fight your urge and I'm really proud of you! Keep up the great work!
The longest I've gone is 100 days exactly. As of right now, 3 days
@Tinkerbell258465 Great job in that 100 days! It's okay that it's back to 3 days. Don't be discouraged by it, and aim for further records this time. I've confidence that you can do this!
A few hours. Whoops.
@FayBee Aww it's okay We all have bad days, and urges can come strong. Don't be discouraged by this setback and try to break your records being clean again! I believe you can walk of this, continually breaking your own records!
@yayyysphere
thank you
A year and three days! But I almost did it again yesterday
@Sunshine020280 that's amazing! A year and 3 days is a big accomplishment!!
I know it's hard to stay clean, but the only thing that really matters is that you stayed strong that day and didn't give in.
Keep staying strong and if you ever need someone to talk to, I'm here!
@kathellsing thanks for the reply. I need to talk. I'm ready to ruin it and self harm now! I tried to send you a message to talk about 20 min ago but the site won't let me. It told me I'm not allowed to talk to teenagers. I need to talk to someone
@Sunshine020280 okay, I hope I'm not too late, but try to delay the urge. Take your tool and freeze it, so if you want to use it, you'll have to wait until it unfreezes. Please do this once you read this if you can.
Try doing whatever makes you feel better like drawing, writing, cooking, watch TV, anything to get your mind off the urge. Try taking a cold bath or shower if you want, because I heard that, that also helps.

Try these sites! They will help! Or try talking to people on here, there are listeners you can talk to that might help.
Stay strong, and even if you relapse, it's okay. Just try. I hope I'm not too late.
@kathellsing you would have been to late! However, I can honestly say I started texting a friend and she talked to me and calmed me down! So I didn't do anything stupid!
few weeks i think..i honestly lost count
@lovingPine3496 AWESOME job! Keep up the great work and make yourself lose count of the number of weeks and years!
Surprisingly 10 months and five days
@LovePom Yay 10 months+ is really fantastic! I'm proud of you and keep it up! Don't be surprised though- you really did great!
7 years!!(:
@banana9393 THAT'S SO AWESOME! I'm feeling really happy just seeing this! I'm extremely proud of you and 7 years is really great, keep up the awesome work! Thanks for sharing and hopefully other members will be encouraged by you!
Was 10 months but now 1 week
@proactiveBeach7535 Aww, it's okay, we all have bad days. The 10 months were really great, and I believe you can break this record! Persist on and go beyond the 10 months this time round. I believe in you!
