I am so angry with myself for this! I was doing so good and I completely ruined it for myself! I must be a complete failure a useless waste of skin! Almost two years down the drain for what? Nothing worth it that's for sure! And I told myself that before I did it and yet I still did it and why? Because I am an idiot! I hate myself right now I really really hate myself for this

Hey,

1st off congrats for going 2 yrs SH free. That is quite the accomplishment. Slipups happen, trust me I know I've had my fair share of them too. Just pick yourself up, dust yourself off and start the free streak over again. Feel free to look at the Alternatives Sticky posted at the top of the SH forum for ideas to keep yourself from slipping again. Also feel free to talk to any1 of us on here, including myself (you know how to reach me). Stay strong hun and dont let this eat you up inside. <3

Stacy, I hate seeing you beat yourself up like this. It's okay that you slipped up. It happens to all of us. Just don't let yourself fall back into the cycle of SH. Get back up, brush yourself off, and start over. It's all you can do and we're all here to support you. You're gonna make it past 2 years this time. I just know it. Message me if you want to talk.

Hey Stacy!
Don't be angry for making the slip. Instead be proud for not doing it for 2 whole years! That is like 720 days! Its not a small achievement! Its something to celebrate!!
Think of it as a mistake. Something we all make. All the time. Its normal, we are humans after all! No one expects you to be perfect. Life is about making mistakes and learning from them. You did it. Its done now. Its over. Gone. In the past. Instead of feeling so bad about it, try looking forward to the future. Make a decision that you will not do it again. Because you deserve so much better <3. Try to figure out the reason for your actions, and even if it seems stupid to you, don't worry. You are allowed to slip and make mistakes. That is life. It is a learning experience. We learn from every slip-up and every mistake we make. So try make this slip a learning experience instead of blaming yourself for being an idiot. We all do it. We are all in this together.
I know it is easier said than done, but try?
Stay strong <3 And you know that you can always PM/VM me if you need to talk

Its easier said that done BUT most of the great things wouldn't have ever been done if they hadn't been said first.

Thanks guys . You are right it was just a slip up. Not like I am going to start doing it all the time again. I will just move on from it. I am feeling better about it today .
