I am FREE (:

December 5, 2013
I decided to give my blades away to a very important person in my life. I came to realize I wasn't going to be able to get rid of them on my own... she was such an importaint person..
we currently don't talk to me because I was friends with her daughter, her daughter is 14 so she is easily influenced by things... the person told me she doesn't want me speaking to her or her daughter about these things anymore.. this tore me apart..
I literally didn't know where to turn or what to do. I didn't self harm because I didn't have my blades anymore..
But here we are 175 days later, I still haven't relapsed since that day...
I started working with her older daughter, which was weird.. I didn't know what she knew about me, I didn't know if the whole family had turned or just the mom, father and one daughter.
turns out she didn't know anything! she knew her mother and I were very close at once but she didn't know what had happened. that gave me some hope with people..
she started taking me home when we worked together and a few snapchats here and a few there, some long car ride talks later.. she knows all about me.. I truly have hope for her, she seems to be different than everyone else or had the easiest life.

That is awesome! Keep it up, I've been free for almost 2 years and it feels so good not to have to explain cuts to people. Others have stopped and so can we. Much love <3



I hurt myself before others get the chance...
I hurt myself because others hurt me and I can't stand the pain...
To tell the truth, I'm afraid of recovery beause it means I have to let go...

Congratulations on staying clean for so long, in spite of some emotional turmoil!

175 days is such a long time; you should be so proud of yourself :)

Do you feel you are at a point where you could throw out the razor?

Im so sick of always telling my followers on twitter oh don't cut, its so much better not doing it, blah blah blah. than im turning around and doing everything i have told them not to do. and the advice i give them is good. but why cant i seem to follow it? i am just that stupid. ugh!

It's not stupid; we're all a bit hypocritical at times when it comes to the advice we give!

I'm sorry to hear that you're struggling. What has helped you when you have had urges in the past?

um to be honest nothing. I usually just cave in. I work a bunch and especially lately so with sleeping and working I hadn't had much down time to really start thinking about myself.
I have been posting new threads lately. when I want to.

its lonely not having anyone.

I went from having Amanda, to having no one.

I mean yes I can still call her when I need someone. but what about hugs, or someone to hold me when I cry. or that will take away my blades. Im weak. What about when she would come get me at 3am because I was having a breakdown.

Its lonely knowing physically I am alone... again..

Sorry I didn't reply to this. I hope you're doing ok?

With regards to dealing with urges, maybe you could take a look through the big distractions list for some ideas of ways to avoid self harming.
