I didn't skip out of work early, even though it would've been easy and I was feeling really down.

i hinted to my best friend that i've been urgy.
and then asked him if he'd go with me to buy markers, so that i'd have them to scribble on myself when it gets bad.
its the best coping method i've found for me so far.

i actually asked for help with it. :)

i'm also proud of myself for taking control of everything in my life. it took so long to do it.

i'm forever proud of myself for that.

I'm proud of myself because even though I slipped today, it was only a tiny little slip and I didn't make myself bleed.
Please be gentle with me.

...because I tried out for a sport, when I normally wouldn't. And because I haven't SIed for a longer time than I thought I could make.
The lightning and the thunder
They go and they come
But the stars and the stillness
Are always at home.

I'm proud of myself today because I wrote in my journal and I went to my day treatment program. :star:
I am in a dark place like a turtle afraid to deal with the pain that I do not want to feel,but eventually I will slowly face my pain,like the turtle when he comes out of his shell.

Because I still haven't hurt myself.

Because I went to my Weight Watchers meeting even though I didn't want to.
Because I worked on math and actually understood some of it.
Because I fit in my capris again.
Please be gentle with me.
