5 months.
I've gone almost 5 months without a major period of self injury (I have SH'd once or twice). I feel really on the edge now. And not just like I might slip up once but like I'll be screwed again. This is a really hard time of year for me - I first SI'd in April of last year and on this coming Tuesday it will be one year since I was sent away from school on medical leave for self injury. I'm scared I'm going to slip up again and have to leave another play because of self-injury like last year. I really don't want to screw up again but I don't know what to do.

congratulations on the 5 months, that's a huge accomplishment.
is there anything you can do to remove yourself from the temptation to s.i., particularly on that day?
maybe you could use it as an extra reason NOT to s.i. - to remind yourself how much you don't want want to go back to that and how much easier it is to make the decision to continue with recovery now than to have to start over again. that said, if you do slip up on that day, it doesn't necessarily mean you are starting over again. everyone has slip ups...but hopefully this won't be one for you.
take care,
