Proud of you! Keep it up! :)

I don't cut but I bite my fingers till they're completely destroyed 🙈

I'm not really very good at keeping the habit from not happening but for me some reminder for not doing it helps a bit. I use to paint my nails to always remind me. I plan to get a tattoo.

I'm constantly telling myself doing it will not make everything any better and that it's my body that I'm doing it to. Somebody here in 7Cups told me that my body is my partner in all my mental struggle so I try to keep it in my mind and listen to it. I didn't bite for a month already, only once or twice it happened without me realizing it.

Some of the grounding techniques help me too, I'm learning to focus on body's senses and needs more.

I don't have any more tips, I'm sorry. I hope it helps.
