Not that i'm in danger or a relapse right now.
But, if someone who has been self harm free for awhile, slipped up and did one cut, would they have to re-start the count of years clean? even though it was just one and they stopped completely after? just a random thought. opinions?  "Art is anything you can get away with"- Andy Warhol |

If I was in that position, I would say "I've been clean for X years with one slip-up," or something along those lines. In my opinion, you shouldn't have to start counting over because of one slip-up.
Congrats on being SH free for so long by the way

I think if you slip up once you just breath and continue on with your count the next day. But with me I slipped up....then gave up and never tried to stop myself again.
I'm a poet, screaming for attention. A singer, itching for an audience. An actor, searching for her stage. Don't you hear me? Screaming for the one missing all the signs. Why must I work so hard?! To show you I'm dying inside?  |

Thanks guys
and yeah i feel the same. i don't think you should have to restart completely. i feel like slipping up once might actually show you how much you don't need to do it in some cases. i did that one other time i had stopped for some time and then i completely threw in the towel. i just wasn't ready at that point in time i guess.
