The General Mental Health Forum is now a Read Only Forum. As we had two large areas making it difficult for many to find, we decided to combine the Mental Health & the Recovery sections of the forum into Mental Health & Recovery as a whole. Physical Health still remains as it's own area within the entire Recovery area.
If you are having struggles, need support in a particular area that you aren't finding a specific recovery area forum, you may find the General Struggles forum a great place to post. Any any that is related to emotions, self-esteem, insomnia, anger, relationship dynamics due to mental health and recovery and other issues that don't fit better in another forum would be examples of topics that might go there.
If you have spiritual issues related to a mental health and recovery issue, please use the Recovery Related Spiritual Advice forum. This forum is designed to be like Christian Advice, only for recovery type of issues. Recovery being like a family in many ways, allows us to support one another together. May you be blessed today and each day.

Now now now...
come on guys u dont have to do this... u can get thru it... think what u will feel like if u do it
is it really a pointless battle tho? is it pointless to be fighting for a happy healthy life, not to mention a better relationship with God
wrong wrong wrong. u will get thru this n then u will look back and laugh at the day u felt so hopeless that u had to write this
i have been trying to stop this for over two years so dont u start giving up... i am not trying to compare just letting u know that u are not alone
really?
well thats good but its not the only thing you know
keep trying... it will get harder for a while but then it will get easier
i sure hope not.
remember how u feel after u have done it
remember God doesnt want to see u hurting
remember how far u have come already

yeah, i tried to deny it too. but i notice now that that person who told me didn't know of the Lord and Savior, who takes away the pain. but it's a long long process. and the more pain and hurt, the longer it takes to heal.

It will always be a part of your in a way, since it's a part of who you ONCE were... but you don't have to always be that person and always have the temptation to. I admit that I used to self-injure but through help from family and friends, I've gotten through it, and can honestly say I do not feel the temptation to hurt myself or feel triggered at all anymore. It is possible, and whilst it can be a difficult journey to get to that point, it's SO worth it 
You guys are so awesome!
