instead: talked, cried and then talked some more. strange how after talking even when you've given up can work.

side question: why only 13 pages to this thread :uhhh: seems a bit odd to me....

Essentially SI free for a 10 years now. Go me!

After all that bus has done for me in the past, I'm giving back. :heart:

I didn't want to give him the satisfaction of knowing he'd upset me to that point. I wrote out a lengthy letter to him instead, and hid it away in a drawer.
You'll find a place where you're beholden to no one
except yourself,
so let them come and see you standing naked
Full of passion, flowing inside out
into creation, becoming one with the present
So go get connected
unshackled essence
Let's f*ck away mortality, you might be independent
I want to get connected
so we can get electric
Then we'll set our souls free dancing into rapture
Immerse yourself in this moment...

Actually the last time I wanted to SI I did, but it was just superficial scratches. Do they count? Probably. Sorry. :oops:

Love, Shelley :oops:

the last time i wanted to si was last week, but i didn't; i was hurting bad, but (a) not as bad as i do when i *do* si, and (b) because i didn't want my best friend to hurt

i'm starting to realise that i *can* control this, that i *don't* need to do this, and that i'm worth more than this...

titbit of advice to all:
just keep that (above sentence) as a mantra; say it to yourself as much as you can, and you'll get stronger, and you'll beat this :)

I didn't want to lose my days, and when I thought about it, when I looked the urge in the eye, I didn't really want to do it anyway.

i have to confess something...:oops: the last time i wanted to, i did :cry:
but the last time i wanted to and didn't, my best friend popped into my head and that made me cry it all out; i've promised him that i'd stop, and unfortunately i keep breaking that promise (yes, i know i'm a bad person because of that :cry:), but i love him more than anything in the world, and thinking about how much i'd hurt him if i did si, hurt to such an extent that i couldn't bear to stab him in the heart yet again... (not literally, just metophorically..:lol:) and realising that our friendship was more important than making myself bleed, i cried and cried coz i love him so much and i'm breaking his heart everytime i tell him that i've "sliced myself up" again... he's the only person i've told about my si'ing that actually cares. hell, he's the only person in my life who cares about me... :cry: ...but the thing that makes all this harder for me is that he lives in australia, and i live in the uk, and i'll never actualy get to see him (i met him on the net..a bit dangerous, i know..), but he's the only person i have that i can really talk to...i can tell him anything, and he'll always listen, and if i'm feeling like shit, he always manages to cheer me up :)

sidetracked myself.. :lol:.. but what stopped me ffrom si'ing, was my best friend; he wasn't even around, but i still felt him there; he's always in my head, but even more so that whenever i'm feeling so low that i wanna deface myself...

:roll: i garbled.. i'm sorry

I remembered how I always feel later: guilty, relieved, guilty for feeling relieved, embarrassed...
