Way to go Irish!!!! I blew it last night, I was 13 days cut free... not anymore. If I was smart I would have gotten stitches but that would mean telling someone I did it and I don't need a lecture.

That's awesome Precious! Congrats to you too Irish! I'm 64 days free of cutting today :) last time I made it to 62...... Definitley wasn't easy to get to 64 days though, holy crap

Try not to beat yourself up about Precious. We all relapse, it doesn't mean you're a bad person. I don't like listening to lectures either, I don't know who does, for that matter lol. Like Irish said, the people that usually lectures us are just clueless.

I like your outlook on it Irish, 'strange and wonderful lives' indeed :)

The meds are for good reasons at least, right?

Yeah, the whole handful. Keeps me sane and "balanced" so why am I still sitting in a depression??? It could be worse. I could be sitting in a suicidal depression, which I'm not.

I don't have a lot of time so I'm stopping by for breakfast. My son pouches a fit last night and rather than sorry his stuff from mine my mom took it all away so I don't have my computer anymore for a while and my phone doesn't hold an internet charge for very long.

I'm bringing an assortment of creamers and some more fruit cocktail.
