Triggering (SI) - I'm slipping up... can't stop.

[scarlet fever]

I'm so stressed out.
I've gone 24 days without cutting, but now I really have the urge. I know I shouldn't go back, but it's so easy, so tempting.

I know how you feel hun. I feel exactly the same way right now. *HUGS*.
Can you distract yourself? Could you maybe go for a bath, watch TV, play with a pet, go for a walk and get some fresh air, ect?
You can get through this, stay strong! 24 days is amazingg! (: Keep fighting, we're all here for you. Take care. xo.

Hey i just wanted to say well done for the 24 days youve gone so far.

Thats fab!!!

i havent cut for quite a long time now but i still get really tempted sometimes and know it can be really hard to stop in the first place too.

im sorry your feeling so bad.

i think its really good that your trying to find ways to distract yourself so that hopefully you dont end up cutting.

i think thats brilliant and you should be proud that you havent given in despite the temptation.

Each moment you get through without i know must be so hard but is such an incredible achievement.

It really is.

Just try and build on things slowly and keep busy!

And feel free to talk about any underlying issues/feelings going on for you here anytime too.

Take care and feel free to PM anytime also for distraction or to chat or whatever!
