Sorry I realise that was from ages ago, Im not with it today!

Cool Sam! :)

*Hugs everyone*

*Hugs Charlie*

*huggles all* hey!

sorry solo I fell asleep. I'm just starting to feel like I am just putting on a face and I am confused about who I really am anymore. I smile so others will be happy but I put my issues to the side to the point where it all builds up into this massive confusion. sorry I started rambling......

how is everyone?

*Hugs you both*

*hugs back* how are you? :)

*Hugs Megz*

Metz, that's exactly what I have done and still struggle with. I firmly believe that has a lot to do with why I am where I am now. Which is not a good place! Just be yourself Hun! Please!

Hi all. Hope you are all doing okay as you can and are safe.

I am back from my trip, doing tons and tons of uni work now.

*hugs*
*waves to the new people*

*Squishes Laura!*

Can I ask you guys a question? Don't worry if you don't feel up to answering, but if there was an informal self harm support group in your area, what sort of things would you want them to do, help with and stuff, what would you want from them?

I'm sorry Charlie , There isn't such a place here that I know of and I don't have an answer to your question :S

Thats fine. I was just wondering what everyone would like to get out of one for my own (I should be starting one, I have a place to hold it and ways to raise funds and stuff)

Maybe alternitive coping techniquices? Something other than draw on yourself with red ,squeeze an icecube stuff , something origional . *Hugs Charlie*

Hmm. I'm not good at coping techniques. Me and the other girl who are organising it have both experienced self harm, i've been cutting for 4 and a half years and she's been cutting for 20 years so we understand what everyone is going through.

*Hides*

Charlie n Mark n whoever else is interested. Theres an old post on here in a thread called, "things to do instead of harming" by squirelspit. It's a fantastic list that has things on it that I had never seen before and it's broken down into what to do depending on what you're feeling at the time. If ya have trouble finding it, let me know.

thanks solo! I am just a perfectionist... so I want to seem ever optimistic (which I usualy am) but it doesn't always work...

hmm... I don't know rawwr...... it seems like a superfantabulose idea though!

Hi everyone, how are you all?
