Getting some control at last!

I guess this is quite a small achievement in some ways, but I thought people here would understand how actually, this is quite a big deal!

A month or so ago I was cutting nearly every day, sometimes more than once. But in the last 10 days I have only SH'd once! I'm so pleased - atm I am not sure I'm ready to give up completely but I really wanted to get a little control over the urges and reduce my SH, which seems to be happening! The urges are still pretty much constant, but some days I seem to be able to say to myself "Do I really want to do this? Can I wait and see if it passes?" and with distractions I have been able to ride it out.

Just wanted to share:)

I put it down on paper and then the ghost does not ache so much.

Don't try to calm the storm, calm yourself, the storm will pass.

You didn't come this far just to come this far.
