I think Chloe said it all,there's not much I could add.
I dont think you can stop until you're ready to stop, and you will know when that time is. There will come a time that you realise that you dont want self harm to be you're coping mechanism.You find other ways of dealing with your problems. But I think you only come to this realisation when you're ready to stop. That's where I'm at at the moment. It doesnt mean I dont get urges, I do, but I can handle those urges much better than I used to.
Recoery is possible, but it takes time and its not something that you can rush into,you have to be ready for it.
Take care,
Siobhán Xx
