8 and a half months. I think I'm done for life. I no longer have urges or think about it obsessively, like I did before.
How far do I have to go to make you understand? I wanna make this work so much it hurts... But I just can't keep on giving, go on living with the way things are. So I'm gonna walk away, and it's up to you to say how far...

I haven't cut since the beginning of July. I do still have urges, and very strong ones, but as of now I haven't given in.

4 days for cutting.
1 day for overdosing. <--- I'm guessing that counts as SH.

2 months, 1 week, and 2 days.
But, I threw out the blades I used to cut with, that were hidden around my room like, yesterday, while my cousin spent the night. I'm sooo proud of myself. I still want to do it really bad, sometimes. But, that eventually fades. I think I might be finally free of it.

Yesterday made 3 days for cutting, 30 days for intentional shaving nicks.
And you know what? While I haven't made the 4 day mark for cutting, or the 31 day mark for intentional shaving nicks yet, I know I will. It's Christmas, and I'm not SHing on Christmas.

46 days. Ready to give up again. Happy holidays every one.
From day one I talked about getting out
But not forgetting about

Three days. I honestly don't know why I even bother with keeping track. It seems as if when I try to think of how long I've gone without I just want to do it more. It just doesn't even matter for me. I can't stop. I need it. I fucken need it.

Sixteen weeks.
Note to others, to keep you going - most of my cuts were healed over by the time I got to 1 month, now I just have scars. Some of them are fading already. They aren't pretty, but compared to how it was - it's a massive reminder of how far I've come. So when you feel like slipping up, think to yourself "If I can make one more day, another cut might've healed"
I have faith in you guys, I know you can do this.
