I did the same :). Cept I ran this morning rather than carrying on cutting after last night. I felt good about myself.

*i looked like a clown =\*

You're all doing really well :)
I haven't cut, even though the urges have never really gone.
I'm still fighting them, and it's an alien feeling to me.

Ranger Fairy · 14-04-2009, 09:35 PM

Went out and talked about my feelings and what is going on for me

Had a long talk with my fiance about what I'm feeling and what's going on right now. I think he finally understands where I'm coming from and why I react the way I do to certain situations.

"Between stimulus and response, there is a space. In that space is our power to choose our response. In our response lies our growth and our freedom." - Viktor E. Frankl. I'm beginning to be able to take this and apply it, and it's helping me to fight the urges to cut more than anything else has.

ksdfjhlksajf · 17-04-2009, 09:19 PM

Good job everyone!!!

I ate a pretty normal lunch (though I suppose that doesn't quite belong here).

Ranger Fairy · 17-04-2009, 09:39 PM

I've coped so far as best I can with the pretty much the worst triggering situation I could have been in for past abuse mermories (Seeing the one the places it happened again)
