Hi Little Bear Cub,

I feel really lonely and scared and very sad.

Before You Self-Harm write down the shadow that's hiding behind the urge. look at it. ask yourself: how will this situation or feeling change if i hurt myself?

Lonely, tired, irritable, needy and withdrawn all at the same time. I definitely need to pamper myself.

I'm scared that I'm always going to be on Disability and never amount to anything, never accomplish anything. I feel like a failure.

The last time I wanted to self-injure I didn't because of the consequences. My therapist says I will have to go back and live in residential treatment if I do cut again. I don't want that because currently I'm living happily with my boyfriend. I also know that if I do start, it will be hard to stop ...

I feel tired and I feel completely and totally in love. I also feel a little bit down. As for the fatigue, I'm going to go back to bed pretty soon. And the feeling down part...well that's why I'm here.

I've been using DBT for a while and sometimes it helps and sometimes it doesn't. I think it depends on my willingness to use it at the time. My therapist has me using Diary Cards and I find these really helpful. Not with the self-harm urges but just with identifying my feelings. I'm lucky in that I ...
