Self-Harm Recovery Check-In: Tuesday, March 24th, 2020
Happy spring lovely SHR Community
I hope you are all doing ok and taking good care of yourselves during this challenging time.
Check-in questions:
How are you feeling today?
How has this new week started for you? Is there anything about it you would like to share with us?
I apologize in advance, my replies are going to be slow. I am feeling a bit all over the place at the moment, and I need to focus on self-care. But you are all in my thoughts and I will get back to all of you.
Please keep safe 
I am looking forward to hearing from you again, as always.
With love from France,
Valeria

How are you feeling today?
I'm feeling okay!
How has this new week started for you? Is there anything about it you would like to share with us?
School work has been hard
I hope you feel better soon!
Hi there @24Help1, thank you for joining this check-in :)
I am glad to hear you are feeling ok, I hope it hasn't changed in the past couple of days.
Schoolwork gets even harder towards the end of the year, doesn't it? I hope it won't get too challenging though!
Thank you for your kind wishes about me feeling better soon, they felt very warm
Have a lovely week,
Valeria
@admaiorasemper
You too
@admaiorasemper
I am feeling fine. The week started off fine, I was able to start and finish a book on the same day. I was also not able to pay attention in class yesterday though.
@PurpleSnail
Hallo schnecke (German this time!)
I am happy you are feeling fine! Wow you read a whole book in a day, that's impressive! It must have been a very interesting and captivating one, would love to know its title :)
Do you know what was distracting you during class that day?
I wish you a nice week, take good care of yourself and thank you for checking-in!
@PurpleSnail
Start AND finish a book on the same day! That's my ultimate goal. :) Good job!!
@admaiorasemper Hey V. Sorry you're having a rough time right now. Kind of having a day here myself. The week started cold and snowy here. So much for spring
You're in my thoughts as well V - take care - be safe
@mytwistedsoul
Hi J, how are you doing today? I hope better, at least a tiny bit... I hear you about the weather, it got very cold here too and the forecast says snow in a few days.
Having a different type of snow already though... sharing a picture with you :D
You are in my thoughts too
Feeling pretty lonely
Week has started off like any other, but it's sunny and clear skies😊
@Madaraismyspiritanimal
Hi Richard, I am sorry you are feeling lonely... do you think it is related to the quarantine? (I am not sure whether you are quarantined yet though?)
I am here for you if that may help
Take good care of yourself and stay safe
@admaiorasemper
How are you feeling today?
I'm ok, as most days. I have used my plan to drive away the depression, and I feel a lot better. I haven't had urges to cut today, so I think I'm doing ok right now. My ED is screaming at me at the moment that I will get fat, bc I don't go to the gym, but I try to do everything I can to work out from home instead and just hope I don't gain too much. I know it shouldn't be important right now, but it is to me. But I have put the thoughts in the back of my head, trying to take care of my grandma instead and groceryshop for her.
How has this new week started for you? Is there anything about it you would like to share with us?
This week has been ok. I have watched a lot of TV, but have done my workouts and have tried to get some kind of rutine into my life again. I'm going to my grandma's tomorrow to buy her some food, and not much else is happening in my life right now. I am thinking a lot about the appartment I have got from May the 15th, and I don't know when I can move there. But I'm kinda happy that I am with my family and not alone. If I was alone I'm sure my anxiety and depression would go nuts...
Hi there @EvilRegalsReadToo
It
@admaiorasemper
Hey all, hope everyone is holding up and quarantining all right.
How are you feeling today?
It's the end of Tuesday and I'm feeling pretty tired but overall ok. :) I worked out today and got a good amount of stuff done so I'm feeling satisfied with myself.
How has this new week started for you? Is there anything about it you would like to share with us?
This week started out pretty well and I can feel the good "dying off" a bit right now but I have hope to recharge my happy soon, however that may look like. Been feeling some intangible feelings for some people in my life lately and trying to sort through it all.
Times are stressful right now and it's ok to ask for help. Feel free to message me if I'm online or ask to pm if you see me around in a group support chat. Stay safe. <3
@TheAtticusFinch
Hi there Atticus,
Thank you for joining this check-in! It is good to hear that you are feeling overall ok and satisfied with yourself, despite being quite tired.
You mention feeling the good dying off, I hope you have found a way to recharge both emotionally and physically. You also mention some intangible feelings for some people in your life, this must be confusing, perhaps challenging. I wonder if you have been able to understand what those feelings are?
I want to thank you for your very kind offer to support me, I felt touched by it. If we weren
@admaiorasemper
Thank you so much <3 I am figuring out ways to recharge and I think we all need to do that in times of crisis like these. :") Would have reached out to the oldies too if I could :( take care!
