Re: Is it or is it not? - June 23rd 2022, 08:42 PM

I think it's perfectly normal to miss something that was a huge part of your life at one point — whether that's a good or bad thing.

Do you have anything to help get your mind off wanting to self-harm? Could you put on your favorite TV show or movie? Or ask a friend if you want to hang out, go see a movie, grab a bite to eat, etc.

But, if you do end up self-harming again, that's fine. It doesn't mean you've failed; it means you've slipped up. What matters is that you're able to get back on your feet again and carry on afterwards.

I would suggest reaching out to your friends for support as well during this time. If you have a therapist, take advantage of your sessions with them to talk about this and how to work through it.

Wishing you the best of luck.

Feel free to reach out again if you need to.
