Hey Jessica,

It is good you have been talking to your therapist about your self harm. It is true that you do have to want to stop to be able to. Doing it less is definitely a step in the right direction and hopefully in time you will do it less and less. You say you are not willing to let go off it yet and that is ok. Maybe as time goes on you will get to a point where you do want to let it go and aim on stopping. But right now maybe isn't the right time for you to do that.

I think you just need to keep talking to your therapist about it and then in time you may get to a point where you feel able to stop. Stay strong.
