First Self-harm Help Monday!

Hello everyone! I m so glad we get to start a Self-harm Help Monday! This is the very first one. For those tagged welcome! For those who want to be tagged for the next Monday write in the comments below!

So, let's start!

Every Monday, reply with your 3 'W's in the comments:

1. ​Win: What is one small victory you had this week? (Even if it’s just 1 hour clean, or using a distraction tactic).

2. ​Wave: Did you face a heavy wave/urge this week? How did you ride it out?

3. ​Word: What is one encouraging word or piece of advice you want to leave for the person who comments after y​ou?

Great! Now let's set the rules:

• The Buddy Reply Rule: Once you post your update, please read the comment right above yours and leave them a message of encouragement, a heart emoji, or a supportive thought!

• The Support Rule: Please be supportive to one another! Avoid unnecessary advices. Show empathy! 

Dont forget:

💡 Reminder: Relapse is a part of recovery, not a failure. If your streak reset this week, you are still welcome here. Your clean slate starts the moment you decide it does.

I hope you like this. I m so excited to see the comments below🤗

@cheerfulKiwi1776 Hi! I'm Jasper, sorry if any of this isn't how it's supposed to be.
I just had a quick question: when people say self harm, they typcially mean cutting or burning. Is this post open to those (*cough* myself *cough*) who do more subtle types? Hitting yourself with something like a ruler that doesn't leave long lasting marks, purposely using too loud music to try to damage your hearing, etc? 
Thanks! Sorry!

Yes indeed it is. Self harm is not only cutting or burning its whatever we intentionally or some times unintentionally do to harm ourselves for various of reasons. I have posted a new post like this for the Monday that passed. Do you want to be in the tagg list?
