The last time i wanted to SI and didn't, i spent the night at my best friend's house. She knows what's up so she didn't mind me inviting myself over for a night. I also made it a point to make myself talk about how I was feeling.

I want to heal a bit, so I can be comfortable in my soccer shorts and cute dresses or something if we have to dress up. Also, summer is coming, which means short shorts and bathing suits... and I don't want to be too destroyed.

Last time I wanted to SI, I didn't because I ate chocolate instead. It distracted me, especially because I had to actually make it on the stove with unsweetened cocoa, margarine, sugar, and milk over the stove. *Smiles happileh.*

I held my bear and talked to my husband. It was the middle of the night and I was very afraid and struggling to stay grounded. Holding my bear was the only thing that worked, but it really worked. Then I went back to sleep.

Last night I wanted to SI. I hurt extremely much, but I *know* that SI'ing isn't really going to help. It's going to, at best, mask the pain for a little bit, then I have to deal with it anyway.
I wrote in my journal a bit, then took sleeping pills and fell asleep.

Because my dog looked at me and handed me what I call 'love tokens' or pieces of a rope that she had torn apart.

I wanted to SI but didnt becasue I know its not going to help me. I am looking into going into something that requires me to have good mental health and altho that is a long way off, the first step to getting back on track is to stop harming. Its hard but i know if i dont want anymore things to fail I have to give it up.
I have been tempted on many occassions but am now SI free for a month!
There has to be a change i'm sure, today is just a day fading into another and that can't be what life is for. (Counting Crows)

Because last night when I saw my best mate he told me he believes in me that I can not do it again and that meant so much to me I don't wana break his trust.
Need clean arms for my prom and for my collage interview.
I relise that it solves nothing long term just causes more pain.
