okay, first off, Ur not a failure. you did a month, and you did 2 weeks...that's more than I've ever done.
you can quit, if you really want to, and don't let a setback or relapse put you off.
try to think of something else you can do instead of hurting yourself, or even the elastic band around wrist thing.
as far as I'm aware, you cant be arrested for SI, maybe that was metaphorical?
my PM box is always open if u wanna chat
stay strong

*Cuddles you* Im very sorry to hear that you slipped up. I understand how upsetting and annoying it is when you slip up but your not a failure. Slipping up is all part of recovery but it doesnt make you a failure. You will get through this. Do you know what it is that caused you to slip up? Do you have proffessional support? Do you have anyone you can talk to about things? Dont give up stay strong we are all here for you.

Things wont be like this forever. One month is a brilliant achievement!! You did really well to go so long without harming yourself. Your not useless. Please dont be so hard on yourself. Have you tried distracting yourself? Here is a link to the Big distractions page http://www.recoveryourlife.com/forum...ead.php?t=1403 and this is the fun and distractions forum http://www.recoveryourlife.com/forum...splay.php?f=22 other things that you could try could be listening to music, watching a movie, or doing jobs to keep yourself busy. Please make sure that you look after your cut/s so that they dont get infected.

Take care best wishes Ian
