Anyone else feel pathetic because they cope with SI verses some other more constructive coping mechanism, or even a societally accepted destructive mechanism?

oh gawd yeah! 37 here and still hurting myself... I also do one the socially acceptable destructive stuff too... I drink too much to often. Not good on my meds. Heck, I am finding a desire to SI when I feel good hoping I can feel better.

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. 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...
