Some major steps
I did some things this week that took me forward in my recovery.
I went swimming for the first time in nearly 2 years. Last time I SIed I did some major work to my leg, so I have some pretty horrific scarring there. But nobody stared or said anything. I even went in the sauna, which was pretty intense (smaller space, so you are even more on show).
I also (with the help of my CPN) threw out my blades yesterday.
I am also 15 months and 5 days free!

Thanks. I really want to get to 18 months free, so I am pretty determined not to SI.
I am planning to go swimming next week, as the next 5 weeks I can get in for free (the local team which organises activities for people with mh problems are paying for it!).

Thanks you two. I forgot to say that getting to the sauna was no mean feat - it involved going down a flight of stairs, across a room, then through 3 sets of doors. So I was on show a lot, with nothing to hide my scars except a towel.

is there honestly nothing in this world
that keeps you living & breathing?

We may not see eye to eye, but we can respect each other's opinions and find the truth in them.
Perhaps in those honest conversations, instead of demonising each other,
we might see each other as imperfect humans, doing our best. ~ Jodi Picoult
