How old...
 
Is everyone in here?

How long have you been S/I ing?

Just curious.

I'm 37.
I stopped self harming regularly just over 2 years ago. Now it's just occasional when things are really bad.
I started consciously hurting myself when I was in my late 20s, but I've always had issues with eating/restricting food intake, and that's still somewhat of a problem for me.

I'm 22. Started self harming when i was 15. I stopped at 21 and was free for about a year and half, now i've started again.

I'm 20, started cutting just over 7 years ago.

Dreamer And Believer 29-12-2007 07:03 PM

I'm 17; I've been cutting for about three months. But I went through stages of SI without realizing that was what it was, starting in 7th grade when I used to bang my head on desks, lockers, brick walls...I only recently saw the connection.

pixie*lyssie 29-12-2007 07:15 PM

xbeckyx 29-12-2007 10:30 PM

I'm 15 and I started consciously SIing when I was about 12 or 13 but now I look back I can see I used to hurt myself when I was little if I got annoyed or upset.
