Self-Injury Support Group
Whether you or someone you know or love struggles with self-injury, this is the community to discuss your experience, find support, meet others going through the same, and get advice on how to stop. Working together, we can help find alternative coping skills to reduce the urge to self-harm.
... is tomorrow, March 1st. Just an FYI, for anyone who didn't know. I think the idea of it is about "breaking the silence," finding someone with whom you feel comfortable talking about it. And working to eradicate the stigma of it. Not suggesting that we all go out and tell everyone we come in contact with... but maybe for those who have wanted to talk to someone but have been hesitating, tomorrow may be a good day to consider it. I have decided that I will talk to at least one person about it, and I am not going to cut tomorrow (maybe I should pretend every day is SI Awareness Day?!)
At any rate, have a good day tomorrow everyone!!! :)

I gave my 2 week notice last Friday 13th. Now to join you fine people in a life of leisure and nothing else to do but to look out for myself....is it just me or does that sound pretty boring? My goal was to live to retire and I guess having to take early retirement because of health reasons wasn't exactly the way I had planned things. I just can't stay in that building that is reeking mildew...

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...
I have a flier that I made, feel free to print some (OR HUNDREDS) out if you're one of those people who want to break the silence by handing them out at your school or whatever....here's the link:

Anyway, it's our day!
Happy SI awareness day to all of you!
