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?
A month and 15 days
I was going on six years or so until I relapsed fairly hard about six months ago. I haven't relapsed since and am really hoping I don't.

Self harming again even once after so long is a great fear of mine that I've had to work with. I was addicted to self harm....eventually it got too tiring to deal with. Too hard to manage and cover up. It's been so long I can't remember - but when life hits a big bump the thoughts come into my head like a bad returning penny. I've gone back once or twice. In moments. And they are just that. Moments you get through. The hardest part is to remember you've come far and are not the same person who started self harming and that all your hard work is still valid and worth it. Not a set back - a hiccup, a bad moment, a cloud in the sky but not the whole sky :) I hope knowing others understand helps and be kind to yourself if you can. ❤️

I appreciate that. I was so angry with myself when I relapsed. Part of the healing was counseling and antidepressants. The rest was horsemanship and getting tired of trying to cover fresh wounds out in the riding arena during the summer (tank tops/short sleeves) and skirting around questions asked by my sensei in my MMA class. A lot of people don't seem to understand that it is an addiction, and you can't just quit and never look back. I'm glad you're healing, and I do appreciate knowing others understand because it feels desolate at times.
@SmallChild13
Anger is hard. It sounds like you're doing a lot of really amazing activities though :) I'm glad you were able to get help with counselling and meds.
Only two days. Almost. I've been struggling a lot.
@creativeCamp2095 self harm is really hard to struggle through, I've been through it personally. Would you like to PM me?
@EclipseAria
It is hard. And thank you. :) I think I will.
@EclipseAria
Err actually you can only listen to teens and I'm older. But thank you anyways. 
One year clean on this upcoming Saturday!!

Six days. I can't seem to make it very long anymore and I'm just UGH.
