Hello,
I am so sorry that you are having a hard time with this and hope that you will be okay soon. First you should be proud of yourself for making it over two years. That is something to be proud of. When we self-harm it can be for different reasons, we are trying to find a way to help us with what we are going through and we feel this is helpful. It is good to find healthy ways to cope and help us when we are having a hard time with this and we are not self harming. For example, when you are having a hard time it is a good idea to find something to help you get your mind off of this for a while, going for a walk around your house or reading a book for a while or drawing or painting or writing or calling a friend or putting on a funny movie or TV show or listening to music or something else that you enjoy doing. Sometimes when we get the first to do this and we are trying a few things and it is not working, we may need to try more things to help take our minds off of this, if that happens try not to get upset because you are trying to help yourself feel better about what is happening. I wish you the best with this and hope that you will be okay soon.
