Yeh... That sounds familiar. How many 'normal' scenarios are harming opportunities for those who have experienced self harm. It takes so much restraint to actually not do something that wouldn't even enter any one else's mind. It's crazy. Not really advice I need, just someone who 'gets' it. Well done in not harming in so long by the way. I always try to think of it as such an achievement as i'm told to but then kind of wonder how it's a good thing that although I haven't hurt myself but the thoughts are at the front of my mind like all of the time. Feel like I'm bein patronised a bit, like when you praise a child for doing something well. That might not make sense but I know what I mean in my head. Nothing makes sense in words once it leaves my head. Thanks for your reply x
