It's a form of Rock Therapy. If you don't know what it is, basicaly you get an object, be it a rock, necklass, marble, anything small you can fit in your hand or have with you at all times. The idea is whenever youre going through a bad time you can touch it and be reminded of the strength you went through in the past, I'm horrible at explaining it. We did it for a while in my group therapy, and I got the rock for a week, and it worked amazingly.
After I "passed on the rock" a few months ago, I decided recently why not have a rock I can hold onto all the time? So a few days ago I found a really oddly smooth rock with somewhat jaded edges, and so far, everytime I wanted to cut, I would just grab it, and slowly the urge would leave me. It's the strangest thing, and to some it may sound insane, but it actually works. So far, It's day 8 (Well, in about three minutes, but still) and I'm proud of myself. I wanted to just share this and maybe you guys can try it out, and I hope it helps someone.
