Is it okay to stay here?

I've stop fighting SI.
so may i still stay here at DS?

well, this was a group to support people stop cutting but i've given up.
And i've been thinking, i would only trigger people to cut if i'm still here..

I'm not asking someone to told me that it's not true or ask me to stay by posting this.

I just want to letting out my feeling, coz i can only do it here.

Anyone feel the same?

If I'm honest, I don't really fight it. Of course, I tend to let everything build up before I'm actually triggered enough to cut, so it ends up not being too often anyway. I guess I feel like it's not that bad, so I just let myself do it most of the time.

But about you staying at DS... I feel like this is a group for people who are dealing with SI. And you are, whether you're fighting it right now or not. As long as you're not posting things in graphic detail, or encouraging that those people who want to stop just give up, I don't see why you couldn't stay. And I'm sure you wouldn't do those things anyway! It's nice to have a place to vent, and where people understand those feelings. We're here to listen and support. And you need that whether you're fighting or not. *HUGS*

it\'s a support group for people dealing with SI no matter what. Whether you\'re fighting it or not, you\'re still dealing with the problems it causes. To be honest, i think we all get to the point where we dont see a point fighting it. there are always different ways to rationalize it... it keeps me from killing myself, i\'m not really hurting anyone, it helps me deal with pain, etc. So yes... I\'d say you\'re still welcome here.
