Self harm
I just can’t seem to stop this time. In the past I would SH once and that would be it. But this time it got as bad as everyday and instead of being just a scratch it’s a cut. I don’t know how to stop :(
@Spirit14 I am sorry to hear that spirit..you can always connect with listeners to talk about it...it might help you a little at least and also feel free to check out these resources : https://www.7cups.com/home/selfharm/#resources

I haven’t found anyone to talk to so far really. I just can’t seem to help myself at the moment.
@Spirit14 i will tag some listeners i know...feel free to message them by searching them here : https://www.7cups.com/BrowseListeners/

Hey, I have been there when even 10 to 12 cuts wouldn't satisfy this need to SH. I practised getting ahead of such a reaction.
1. Find the real reason why it has become important to you?
2. Instead of going cold turkey, don't end sh right away. Take baby steps. Some people reported that visualising or planning SH was helpful.
I really hope you overcome this challenge
