    How long since you last self injured? (3)

    I know I don't get on here very much anymore, but I wanted to get on to encourage all of you today! On Sunday I hit my 2 year mark since the last time I cut myself. Just keep strong, keep praying and seeking God. Continue to resist the temptation to hurt yourself. Slowly the days will turn...

    When All Else Fails, Do This First

    All I can say to that is AMEN! I would add that if you don't feel like you can pray, ask someone to pray with you. It's a good start too!

    Anti SI (Trigger?)

    Great advice and totally right on. I pray when I get the urge...mostly for strength to resist and such. Then I remember the other times I've won the battle (so to speak). It helps...well at least it helps me. And I also do the whole "this is satan, not me...I don't want to do this" So far...

    Quick question

    My mom asked me the same question when I finally confessed to what I had been doing (mind you this was after I received counseling and had dealt with a lot on my own while I was away at college). For me it wasn't that I was depressed. In fact, I was no more depressed than anyone you might pass...

    a poem i found about a friend's perspective on SI

    That poem was good...I cried when I read it. I guess I can relate because before I started SIing...I was trying to help a friend through it. Kinda makes me a hypocrite, but whatever, we've both dealt with that. It's a good poem though. Totally how I would react if any of my friends started...

    please pray...

    Hey, I'll definitely pray for you! Let me know how it goes, okay? You can do this...remember... "No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us." Romans 8:37 You are a conqueror!

    Once a SIer, always a SIer?

    I think it's important to remember what you went through. But I don't think it's healthy to keep identifying yourself with SI. To say that you will always be an SIer isn't letting God complete the healing He has in store in for you. Plus, it's letting SI continue to lead your life. Will you...

    How long since you last self injured? (2)

    I'm so happy, I just hit my one year mark today (well, yesterday on the 3rd). I want to encourage you to all keep going. It's an amazing feeling to look back and see how long it's been and how far you've come.

    Alone

    HolyOne87-thank you. I'd forgotten how much of a family this was. It's so nice to know that there are people, like you, who do care and are willing to listen without judging. Angelkiss-Thank you. Gos is always with us and I think I just lost sight of that last week...and He went a long way...

    Seriously Trying This Time...

    In my opininon, it doesn't make the past 22 days disappear! If it was an accident, then it doesn't count! It's not like you went out of your way to find a sharp object and then purposefully hurt yourself with it. Don't beat yourself up over this accident. Keep going strong...and...

    Alone

    So, I guess it's been awhile since I've been on this site. I only just started coming back last week when for the first time in a long time, I felt myself slipping back towards SI and that I was out of control. I'm okay and I didn't act on the urge despite how tempting it might have been. I...

    Seriously Trying This Time...

    Congratulations on 15 days! You can do this. Cold turkey is hard...it's very hard...but I'm a day away from 1o months from my last cut. I stopped cold turkey. Don't get me wrong...there are still times I want to turn back to it. There are times that I feel that tug to turn back. I had...

    Post here when you feel like cutting

    It's been a rough week...especially the last 2 days...and I'm really wanting to turn back to this. I'm 1 day shy of it being 10 months since I last injured myself...but I really just want to throw in the towel.

    How long since you last self injured?

    You are not useless and you do not deserve to hurt. Seeking the path of recovery is hard. I encourage you to seek the path of healing and strength through Christ. He will never give up on you and wouldn't want you to feel the way you do when you cut/self-injure. If you need someone to talk...

    Question

    Hey everyone. So, I was struggling a lot last night and realized that I don't have any Bible verses that I can turn to in times like that. I guess I was just wondering if anyone has biblical references on cutting being wrong. I mean, I know it is, but I guess I just want something in the...
