Hello...I am new here. Maybe a week since I joined. so after 3 whole months, I slipped up and cut last night. I am so disappointed in myself. So now I start over again on my quest to be cut free. Why do we like it so much? I don't know. All I know is in that very moment I am in control of myself and I can make the decision, even though it may not be a smart one. Thanks for listening.
feel free to send me a message if you ever want to talk
secondly, dont be hard on yourself for slipping up, it happens. But well done for 3 months :)
talk to me if you want, and thanks for putting triggering :)

i went almost 5 1/2 months and slipped. i'm still recovering from it. but i think it made me stronger for later on.
it is good to be disappointed in yourself for a little while, because it shows that you really do want to stop. but then you have to pick yourself back up dust yourself off.
we're all here to listen when you need us to. and will help in anyway we can.
stay strong (and reply to the vurb the urge post.)
much love,
~K
if you could post in the vurb the urge, tell us how long you went w/o cutting and what u used to stay SI free
You did so well to go three months.
Once in three months is better than twice in three months.
You still did well. Your effort was not wasted. You still did good most of the time. So, you are not perfect - no-one is..
