Remeber when you didn’t cut
So, my counsellor and I decided to write down the times I wanted to cut but didn’t. I couldn’t believe it. There were actually times when I felt urges but didn’t give in. Sometimes urges are so powerful but knowing that I don’t always give in gives me hope…I hope it does for you too! Good luck guys! I think we can do this!!!!
Keep fighting!
It’s tough but it’s also worth it. You can stop self injuring. Just keep saying to yourself: Keep fighting. Keep fighting. Keep fighting…
Life after SI
I used to think I couldnt stop that I’d always SI. With the help of a good friend and my counsellor I learned I could overcome SI. It wasnt easy…trust me…it was really tough at times and I had times when I’d do it again…but thats normal. Everyone has setbacks. But you can do it. You can beat this. WE can all beat this…best wishes to u all! xo
Never alone
So it may seem like ur all alone in this fight but ur not! Call a friend, text a friend, go talk to your family, talk to a psychologist, talk to anyone at all…u are never alone….NEVER.
Exercise helped me!
So, I know we all have our own things that help us but for me I found that exercise helped. Whenever I had an urge I just got up and did something…pushups, sit ups, running..I even used my stairs lol…just moving around helped…I now run a few times a week and find it really helps my mood. Just thought Id share…maybe it will help…just remeber u can stop!
U can cope
It may not seem like it, but there are ways to cope and not give in with the urge! I’m not sayin’ it’s easy but u can do it! Do anything else…draw, paint, blast some music, call a friend, go for a run, jump up and down, do anythng…u can do it…trust me, u can overcome this!
Never give up!
Altho it can feel like ur all alone, ur not. I used to think that all the time but I was wrong. I also know u can beat this. It’s not ez but u can definatly do it! Just keep going…keep trying…never stop…never give up!!!!
Suggestions…
Sometimes writing things out on paper can help to get the feelings out. Try doing that instead of self-injuring if you can. OR, try talking to someone you trust…i would suggest someone in person or on the phone if you can! It helped me! Good luck, hand in there 🙂
Stopping self-injury
you will be able to stop, it just takes time. you don’t learn to ride a bike the first time you try right… eventually you’ll be able to bike for miles and miles without so much as a wobble, but at the start, you fall over lots. its the same sorta thing with stopping harming
