...I feel like I'm going to be sick. My hands are shaking and my head is throbbing and I can't focus. I think I'm having some kind of breakdown and the last time something like this happened, I slashed my arm up pretty bad. I want to call my Mom and talk to her but she's at work and hasn't been feeling good these past couple of days, so I don't think that would be a good idea. I've been doing so good and I don't want to ruin my progress so soon. It's only been a couple of months for God's sakes! But I don't know if I can keep going on like this... I want to cry but I can't, I want to scream but I can't and more than anything I want the aching in my chest to go away because I feel like I'm choking on my own heartbeat! I'm going to break apart if this keeps up and the rubber bands aren't working anymore. I need something but I don't know what to do! My mind keeps telling me to reach for the knife under my bed and I know if I do there won't be any stopping... I just want it to stop. I just want it to stop...

Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
im here to talk if you want.
I'm feeling a little better now, not great, but I'm not panicking anymore... Self-preservation won out, and I didn't give in...hopefully, I'll be okay for the rest of the day.
