4months...i think...and im going strong....I asked God for help, now, everytime i feel the need to, i pray and cry alot...try it...Pray and shout if u have to, let every emotion u have out. FOUR or FIVE MONTHS!! although my scars are still there, but ive even told a guy i liked about everything and he says it doesnt change his opinion of me.

 

[julez]

Four or Five months...pray...let your anger and every emotion u have out...give everything u have to God...i stoped self harming when i saw how many people got worried about me and how unhappy it made them...let alone me.

The last time was October 16th 2005, This is the longest i've gone without doing self-injury. Everyday has been a struggle, as days go on it get even hard to fight the feeling.

My dear little sister Jennifer:

I am glad you've done so well. As the fighting gets difficult, ask Jesus to help you out. Indeed, he is mightier than any heavenly or earthly host. Read up his words from Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. His words have a strange power that is invisible, but overcoming addictions. I will remember you in my prayers. Please write back, even though it was a slip or fall for a moment.

Sincerely,

Rupert

Last night It's just so addictive. I don't even need a trigger anymore. I am getting to the point where I want it to stop though.

Please try the elastic band method the next time you are tempted. It has the same effect but is less distructive or noticable. i know i keep saying this but I know it has helped me, though i know it wont suit everyone there has got to be some people it will help. I now dont have a problem with SI at all but I do know what it is like nad occationally get the thought in my head when I break glass or am doing the washing up and washing up a sharp knife, but not to the extent of needing to do it.
