so proud of myself -
November 5th 2011, 11:10 PM
It's awesome to be able to say that! I'm just doing really well. I haven't self-harmed or purged in around 5 months, and I was truly tested this week. I had a HORRENDOUS fight with my roommate, and was so horribly hurt. BUT, I DID NOT self harm. I didn't even binge! Instead, I actually cried. I cried and felt my emotions. The next morning I went with a different group of friends to a wonderful breakfast, shopped for a friends birthday, and had the best time picking out silly cards and planning the cake. We actually had such a great time that we played hooky from our next class and went shopping!
I'm proud of myself for not using bad behaviors to cope that night, and I'm also proud that I was able to cheer myself up the next day. Usually a night like that would result in staying in bed for a day or two, but I was able to force myself to get up, and I'm so glad I did. God, grant the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know that difference.

It's really great that you're moving forward and not giving into self harm. I know that it's a challenge but the fact that you can do it shows that you're an extremely strong person!
Stay strong; you're doing really well! All the best. -Katelyn.
