Is it my imagination or are we doing better with self-injury on this board?
It seems like not too long ago that many of us were really struggling to keep our physical bodies intact.
Recently I noticed that there hasn't been a post about it in a long time.
I will not lie-- I still struggle with it. Honestly, the only thing that has been stopping me recently is the thought of having to go to a formal party in a revealing dress. I don't want to reveal my boo boos.
Is this just my impression, or are people just not posting about it as much. Well, I hope we are doing better, but I understand if there are still urges, and slip ups along the way.
Just because I post this message doesn't mean that your SI shouldn't be talked about. I just wanted to open the door so that we can talk about what's working for us, and what's not working.
working for me
-medication (geodon, lamictal, klonopin, in particular
-little black dress
-therapist who checks up on this issue regularly. Helps with the shame. She can handle it and seems okay, if not eager to talk about it.
