Self-harm Help Monday Three!
Welcome everyone! You might not realize it but I m so proud and extremely happy and grateful for all of us reaching the Third Self-harm Help Monday! The last two went really well and I appreciate this a lot! You all are amazing and you can achieve whatever you set your mind to!
I really hope you had a great week! And I wish you a great new week as its Monday today.
Let's start our third self-harm Help Monday!
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 you?
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!
Please remember:
💡 Reminder: You are worth more than you think. Your scars are beautiful and show you are strong, not weak.
And that's it! Thanks everyone for reading this! I m so excited to see youse all progress! Take care✨️🩵

I guess my win this week is mostly being totally ok. I did self harm for just a moment, but not severely... I was being hounded about something to the point that I couldn't take it anymore. I got through it afterwards. You don't have to let it continue if it happens... Sometimes you just have to not panic about the fact that it happened.
It's good to get that out, thank you for keeping this going!

I m really glad it helps you. Its okay if you relapsed its all part of the progress. I think you can make it though. I know how hard it is when everything is weighting you don't. Either way, I m here for you and I m sure many more people. I might not know you in real life but I think that doesnt particularly matter. My pleasure to keep this going. Take care. I hope I see you next Monday. You are strong. You've got this

I haven't self harmed this week so I guess that's good. I also didn't really have urges this week either, there was a couple of days where I did but it wasn't really that bad. Ive been trying to do more of the things that used to make me happy and I think its been helping with it as well.
your stronger than you think and you don't have to face everything alone.
@IzzyGamer
Doing things you enjoy and make you happy is a great way to just improve your mental status in general so good job 🩵
I hope you can continue to do happy things

Oh I m so glad and happy! You haven't self harmed this week and you didn't have that many urges which is awesome! I m glad you are trying to do more of the things that used to make you happy and you see some progress in that!

That's really helpful. Thanks for sharing

Hey thank you for making these, sorry I missed the first two.
I've been having a rough couple of days and and very mildy cut myself for the first time since February or March (honestly don't remember which,) last night. So that's been very demotivating today, however a win is I've been less scared to show my skin in public.
Uhh for the last month the thoughts of SH have been coming back much worse and in weird waves and last week was no exception, clearly I didn't ride them all out very well but definitely improved since I first was this way.
Word of encouragement, scars, marks, and pain don't define or control you. It's the heart, soul, and mind instead, live confident in your potential and don't stop.
Thank you for reading and hosting this, you are loved and thanked 🩵

My pleasure. Don't worry its okie

I understand why its demotivating but to be honest its totally amazing the fact that you cut yourself mildly and you dont do it everyday. Its okay. Healing takes time and work. You've got this.
The win is amazing. I m really proud of you✨️💜

Its okay if you have thoughts and weird waves of SH. I understand it can be tough. I know it. Its okay if you didn't ride them out very well, what matters is that you improved. Well done
