Struggling with urges again

[erinvenus]

Hi everyone,
Lately I’ve been struggling with urges to self-harm again after being safe for a while. It feels frustrating because I thought I was doing better, but now the thoughts are back stronger.

I don’t really want to act on them, but it’s getting hard to distract myself. What do you usually do when the urges come back? Any coping strategies that have helped you push through?

Hello and thank you for posting about this and asking for help. When you are having a hard time with this try finding something to help get your mind off of this for a while. Going for a walk or playing a game or watching a movie or TV show or something else until you feel better. Hope you will be okay soon.
