Re: How are you beating Self Harm?
Drawing butterflies on myself, in permanent markers. You can't harm yourself until the butterfly goes away, and permanent marker lasts awhile, so it makes me take time to calm down.

I found my ultimate motivator.
I want to quit so I can go to France in November with my school. My progress is being closely monitored, so I'm going to put in my very best effort to fight this. I'm not going to let self-harm get in the way of my goal <3 |
Re: How are you beating Self Harm?
I cried myself to sleep. Ah well, it worked.
|
Re: How are you beating Self Harm?
I'm not really sure anymore how I do it. I guess I just know for sure that I don't want to anymore so I am doing my very best not to. I keep telling myself just make it another month and it will feel like a great accomplishment and it always does! Then It just makes me excited to start my next month.

Re: How are you beating Self Harm?

Listening to music, exercising, doing homework, talking to my bff on skype

Re: How are you beating Self Harm?
By using sheer willpower. I don't find occupational methods very helpful - if I want to stop doing something, I just 'quit' there and then. Sort of an impulse, heat of the moment thing.
It's worked, given that I'm approaching two years free...:shifty: |
Re: How are you beating Self Harm?
I stopped myself tonight. I was literally about to cut, then I thought about how I didn't want anymore scars and I wanted to get better. Also thought about how I'll probably see my best friend this weekend and if she asked about it, I'd rather tell her I haven't hurt myself in a few weeks rather than just a few days.

Re: How are you beating Self Harm?
I've been emailing myself when I feel like doing it, sort of like an online journal that only I can see.
I also made a list of goals to start small without SH and eventually progress to not doing it anymore. |
Re: How are you beating Self Harm?
I go to the skatepark or I hit the streets and pick something to conquer that day. A 2 set of stairs, a 4-set, a drop etc etc.

Re: How are you beating Self Harm?
Not wanting to hear the pain in my boyfriends voice when he asks if I did it again
|
Re: How are you beating Self Harm?
Last night it was really hard but I got out my "emergency kit" and tried nearly everything in it. I listened to calming music, I used smell goods, I drank tea but what really helped was I did a really hard sudoku puzzle, I wouldn\'t let myself self-harm until I was done with the puzzle. By the time I was done I was really tired and was able to lay down and I fell right to sleep.
|
Re: How are you beating Self Harm?
Writing poems n how I feel. So, yeah, my poems are mostly depressive shit.
Or, playing sims, give my hands something to do. Jay. |
