I've been told I'm a person of value and if that's true then I am hurting myself by hurting myself. I'm having a little bit hard time believing I have value because then I'm not bad and not to blame for what happened to me. So maybe I will be able to stop hurting myself.

I didn't buy what I needed to use to hurt myself. I just told myself that I can do it another time and that bought me time. If I keep putting it off maybe I won't do it again.
