And I'm close to breaking. It's roughly 1.5 months since I last cut. Life is starting to suck again. And I'm so close to using ANY method of self harm. (I've managed to stay SH free for that bit of time, as well.) I almost started scratching myself in Science today. I scramble around for lighters but then put them back, remembering I can't. I need help, VT. I need to get over this little lump so I can go further. I have a vacation in Florida in a month.

Use the holiday to help boost your willpower, one and a half months is amazing and you can get so much further than that. Even if life is starting to 'suck', cutting won't make anything any better, it'll just make it worse as soon as you get on holiday, trust me. You're strong enough hun, you'll get past it :hug3:

Mark, 1 and a half months really is amazing!

As Nat said, use this holiday as motivation not to do it. You know cutting won't really help in the end, and you know if you cut again you've only got to go through that one and a half months again to get where you where before.

Always here if you want to talk :)

Thanks for all your help. I managed to get through the night (with a bit of attempted SH, I must admit), but I am feeling less stressed now. Again, thank you.
