Maybe it would help you if you look for other things to try to do when you feel like cutting. One of these posts mentioned exercise. Exercise releases endorphins that make u feel better physically. For me it was like a tool, cutting or si. It was what i did to cope. I had to learn other ways of coping and hold to using them instead of si when I felt like cutting burning bashing bruising ect. I want to add, I think you are brave for trying to stop. If you keep trying eventually you will suceed. Today I read somthing i would like to add, we live in darkness when we do not look at ourselves honestly. Dont be so critical of ur cutting, try to be gentle with yourself. Its easy to get overwhelmed. You are not alone, I hope you might find some comfort or use from my words. If we take coping one feeling at a time, then you have sucessfully coped hundreds of times each day you didnt si. Try not to focus so much on your relapses but more on the time you managed to not si. You are doing an amazing job.
