Erm, heroics, hmm, I ordered my three month bracelet from the RYL Shop yesterday as an incentive to not hurt myself again as the urges have been especially bad recently. It'll be hard once I have the bracelet to do it again! Also, I have been making it to work and Zumba and didn't OD yesterday when I had planned to and I desperately wanted to.

Oooo twice!!!! Yay for recovery-pro-ness!!!

Glad you had a good time :D well done on making yourself go

Well done! I completley understand wanting to cancel due to low thoughts/nerves etc, but that's even more reason to feel good for going through with plans ^^

I knew you could do it! Well done for staying strong and being awesome.

ALL THE HERO POINTS FOR YOU!
I managed to get through a really tough day yesterday, managed toget out of bed today, and carry on to have a very nice day, and feel loads better.
And yet, by heaven, I think my love as rare,
As any she belied with false compare.
He indeed did! Though he actually gave up on it until I said I wouldn't go to sleep before I got that bottle open! :P
I let you get on with it for a few minutes, but then I started to pity you and decided to put you out of your misery. So you could sleep. But then you didn't sleep much anyway. What a waste of heroics. Well, it was nice wine so maybe it wasn't so much of a waste after all. Lana dictated about half of this message.
This thread makes me so happy. You guys are all doing so well! :D
As for me... I've had a tough weekend, and ended up very triggered and feeling a bit hopeless. But after having a nice little cry session, instead of turning to self harm like I used to do, I feel better. And I know that in the long run crying is a much better thing to do. XD
oh non-believer, please believe me.
is there honestly nothing in this world
that keeps you living & breathing?
you're a ghost in your own
goddamn city.
Today, went through with plans to meet up with a certain someone,managed trains (including a change, and one during a thunderstorm), and had a lovely day ^^
And yet, by heaven, I think my love as rare,
As any she belied with false compare.
I travelled on a train for two hours, spent some time with my dad whom i haven't seen in forever, and had a two hour train journey home. Just trying seems challenging at the moment, but i'm still trying to try!
And there will come a time, you'll see, with no more tears. And love will not break your heart, but dismiss your fears...
Today Lana and I managed to make out without giggling at the TV. Or because we're trying too hard not to laugh at the TV. Or just for no reason at all. We're really proud of ourselves. I think this is a huge breakthrough in our relationship.
So proud of all of you <3
Including Conor and Lana -_- :P
I've agreed to go for dinner at my girlfriend's house for the first time. This will involve manning up and letting someone new cook for me and eating in front of her for the first time.
I've had an incredibly emotional day and engaged in none of the behaviours even when being all the fliddy.
I tried new food again today.
Now I'll play your ghost as my ace, whenever I'm led astray.
But I am actually good, can't help it if we're tilted.
I'm in my right place, don't be a downer.

OMG CONOR! Why are you telling people that?!? I totally didn't know you posted this!
LIEEEEEEEEEEEEEES!!!
Also: never try to make out while Friends or Futurama is on! *nods*
It's the truth and you know it. But yes, that is wise advice.
The awkward moment when you suddenly realise that you're arguing with your girlfriend on a public forum rather than face to face even though she's sitting right next to you. And that you're arguing by passing the laptop back and forth and logging in and out so you can reply to each other's posts. We're such an awesome (and totally normal) couple.
