am trying...its going ok so far...a week and a bit...WELDONE I am so impressed and good luck!! xx

Well done keep going hun

Thanks for ur support. u can all do it too. it gives an amazing feeling. I feel so positive about it.

good for you!! keep it up, you're doing great! finding ways to replace it is EXACTLY what you have to do. I know you can do this, just take it a day, an hour, or a minute at a time--whatever you need to so you can hold on to this strength you've found.

Well done
the strenge is there even though sometimes it is hard to find.
well done!

congratulations!!! i managed to go a full year without cutting or burning myself, until this week. i found that physically exhausting myself was the best way to avoid cutting for so long. i'm totally out of shape so it didn't take much, just running as hard as i could in one direction until i could NOT go any more, then the walk back was my calm down time. if i felt i NEEDED to hurt myself i would just hit myself anywhere but the face until i got it out of my system. there's not the instant gratification of seeing what damage you've done but it will also just physically exhaust you. every day is a success, even when you've managed to make it a year. congrats to everyone who is taking the steps to make positive change in their lives!!!

i am so pleased for you, i think your a brave, brave person. i hope you continue with your struggle with confidence and strength

Way to go!

I'm also in the process of quitting..and have been for the past 2 years. It's a struggle, but eventually it does get easier.
