An Ye Harm None, Do What Ye Will

[XxMurderedKissesxX]

As I wiccan I feel torn. I believe and try to up hold this rede but at the same time, cant. I have so many over powering urges that I cant take it anymore. I just keep saying "One more time" One more turns into three or four and now I have no room left on my arm. Its hard to stop when the main thing triggering u is the people u live with. I feel like theres no way out and I should just lie down ,give up ,except ill never be free of this. Is there anyway out or am I trapped?

Your never trapped. Instead of "one more time" cutting, think "one more day" without. The longer you can go without the easier it will get. It takes time, and it's not easy, but it is possible.
Vm me if you want to talk :)

Your not trapped, I used to do the same as you, just keep saying just one more time, but it never ends up like that, as i'm sure you know.
As Kathy said, why not try saying one more day without doing it, it will be hard to start with, but it can be beaten
PM me if you want to talk

Like the others have said, you're never trapped.
I know what it's like to think, "one more, just one more time," but you just need to tell yourself that you don't need to do it at all. You might feel like you do, but you don't.
There is a way out, there always is. Talk to someone, and tell them about how you feel trapped.
Or write it on your hand how long you've been without cutting, and whenever you look at it, it'll remind you just how strong you are, and how long you can go, and give yourself goals. Like, "right, I want to get to 10 says," then 50, then 100, and just keep on setting new goals once you've reached your last one.
It might seem hard to do, but it's worth all the hard work.

PM me anytime if you ever need to talk, I'm always here :hug:
