ive noow harmed for about 2 years and i feel like im about to cave in. ive been struggling and fighting the urges for a couple of weeks and now ive just had an arguement with my husband about how much he drinks every night and hes gone to be in a huff and i just want to harm to let it all out. i feel ready to explode like a shook up bottle of fizzy drink.

find something to distract you, take a walk, watch tv, do jumping jacks, anything to get your brain off that need to relase your stress that way! I hope you are ok, you can't change him don't let his issues pull you into something you son't want to be in. good luck!

Try to do a lot of cardio. It will reset you and let all of that built up anxiety and rage out. Then it will calm you down and release serotonin. I know you can't always exercise and I rarely do it when I'm upset. You could write everything down that you are feeling, that helps me a lot. But usually if I really want to cut I just do it after anyway because I don't care. Maybe coloring or doing some kind of art would help. After you calm down some maybe you could read to distract you once you've worked through it some.

I've been clean for 5 months now. There's some good days and some bad days. The objective is to get through the bad days to the good days. A friend of mine keeps telling me: If you cut, four hours later you're going to regret it. So don't let one bad day ruin twenty four months... Please...

My 6mo twin DD's are EBF and just started rice cereal on the first. Everything has been going fine except this morning one of them had a diaper rash (lots of redness around her anus). I read this as one of the signs of an allergy. BUT I did just buy a different brand diaper yesterday (which they have used randomly before w/no issues). Do you think its the cereal or the diaper? Im ready to start...
