I was a month free of self harm yesterday. I have such strong urges tonight but am distracting myself. I opened up to my best friend today saying how she triggers me a lot and how she has triggered my self harm before and tried to ask her to have more consideration but she just twisted my words and said I was indicating she was the cause of my self harm. Which I never did. I'm finding it so hard tonight. by the way sorry if I used this platfrom incorrectly I have never used it before ♡

you’re so strong, and it helps to remember that. to be free of self harm for a whole month is an achievement that you should be proud of, and aim to be there again. there are many substitutes, such as flicking rubber bands, rubbing ice on your skin, or if you want to distract yourself you can draw on the area, listen to music, call a friend or even exercise. it‘s difficult to do these things, so if you’re not able to then that’s okay too. you’ve got this! there are many people who love you and support you
