Coping mechanisms! ( get clean from self harm)
Here are a few ways to get clean from self harm!
1. Draw on your arms and legs
2. buy a chewie or something you can chew on
3. get a fidget toy
4. get a rubber band and pull it back and let it hit your wrist
4. use a Walmart hair clip and push it into your skin(the mark will fade in about 24 hrs)
5. If you pick at your fingers paint your nails and pick at that
6. get a teddy bear and anytime you feel that way, put a piece of clothing / accessory on it
7. cut your hair
8. If you burn yourself, put an ice cube on your skin til it melts
9. Every time you want to hurt yourself put in a journal entry about why you want to how you feel on a scale from 1-10 and something your looking forward to doing.
side note: just know that what ever is happening right now will be past one day and that every will come out ok with time.
