I've got great news.... I haven't cut in... too long to even remember!
My many scars still show on my skin-- doesn't help that my skin type scars easily, and shows up easily. But when I look at them, I don't feel the urge anymore to harm. I can safely watch videos about SH, and not run looking for relief. It feels amazing. I wear shorter sleeved shirts-- and I'm alright if people ask or stare because inside I know that I am better. It was a horrid and dark time of my life for 6 years. But I powered through, and now it's over.
I was positive that I would never be able to stop, but I did. So those of you who felt like me-- there is hope! Being busy helps, because then there's no time to consider it. Or even sleeping. I did that a lot, and I still do. I still suffer from minor depression now and then, and when it happens I sing or sleep.
So there's my success story. I hope to hear many others from you all~
