Yeah Lily, I'd definitely say that SH can be considered an addiction and I think that's another reason why it's so difficult to stop. But just because it's hard to stop and it can be addicting doesn't mean that it's impossible - it just means that it's something that you need support with. I think it's great that you've made the decision to stop and that you've taken steps to getting rid of your tools. Both of those things take such a lot of strength to do.

You know you said that your friend thinks that you have already stopped, how would you feel about telling them that you haven't? Like I said, I think it's so important to have help and support when you're trying to stop and the support of your friend could really benefit you. Remember that we're all here for you as well. You're not fighting this alone.
