Six months is an awesome accomplishment! I'm coming up on two months, and I also really hope the urges will lessen with time. I think even WANTING to be SI free is a huge step, though, so congratulations on hanging onto that this long! Whatever reason you're trying to stop for, you've been free for six months. That's a good thing!
Looking forward to getting to know you :)
Hi! And I practically feel like I'm here for the first time, so I'd say we're in the same boat.
And I've only been back for like twelve hours, but I'm definitely wondering why I ever left. I'm glad you've found a place that you find positive and encouraging, too! We need all the support we can get, after all!
And
same. Two months is an amazing achievement! If you can go two more of them, you'll be at the six month mark! And then if you can go one more of that, you'll be at the twelve month mark! I find looking at it that way makes it seem much less daunting.
To making huge, positive steps!
I look forward to getting to know you, too! Especially considering your profile says you're a fellow reader and writer.
