• 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.

Sometime in June for me. However, I'm really free of the compulsion. I let myself slide into the horrible cycle of depression when I lost a close friend (all is well between us now!) and it seemed like the only thing left! Of course, I finally got so desperate I made an appointment to see my psychiatrist the next day, and in that 24 hours, just thinking about the appointment reminded me of all the successful coping strategies we had built together.

I imagine I'll always be one to relapse as I'm rather compulsive in all of life, but each time it's less and less difficult to resist and more and more removed from the last!

A few months! I haven't cut in a couple years, but I still SIed at times in other ways. Haven't done it at all for awhile now though. I doubt I am completely "cured" (time will tell), but I have found great solace in journal writing. It's helped a lot for me.
