I'm so tired of hearing that relapse happens and that it's ok

I know that relapse is inevitable I'm not dumb but it is so hard to hear when I am fighting this crap and I'm supposed to get better but everyone is gonna sugar coat everything I am currently 15 I am in my sophomore year and I have been dealing with self harm since 5th grade my freshman year I got admitted to the loony bin it was 5 months before I relapsed 5 months I hate the fact that I understand why I did it and I understand why I shouldn't and I don't know which I should listen to

How about listen to both ... if you know why ...examine the why further.  is there other option or another thing you could do instead.if you feel you shouldn't and how it only makes issue prolong maybe you can stop before you relapse.

even if we have someone to talk to i find talking out loud to myself like i was explaining to someone else i can see when i am deflecting or BS talk and i cannot successfully lie to myself about why or such. That has made me avoid relapse into my thing which is not SH but still a compulsion.
