I'm 42, it has only been 15 months since I last self injured. I fight it all the time. If you want to talk, pm me!

In forgiving others, we are not exonerating them. They may not deserve exoneration. Rather, in forgiving others we are giving up our anger over the fact that what happened is not what "should" have happened or that our life is not the way it "should" have been.

There are more people out there than you think who self injure in their 40s. You're not pathetic at all and it isn't hopeless. Please be kind to yourself, you didn't ask to feel the way you do but there is always hope. Don't be afraid to seek help when you're ready......you deserve a life free of SI just as much as anyone else.

PM me anytime if you feel that you need to talk/vent, I will always listen!

Hugs

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

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

There is nothing to be ashamed of, I think you would find alot of others who are they same age or older going through similar. Recovery is always possible and will happen when you are ready. Self-harm does not discriminate against age.

on every single day and it's
something that doesn't
get a day off."
