I had a great day at program today,and when I came home,I had to go to the drugstore,to filled presdione ,if I spell that word right,cause I put perfume on and the neck day my neck broke out with a allergic reaction to my skin. I am not happy about taking it,cause my boy-friend did and he gain alot of weight. I am only taking them for 12 days,the first four days I take 2 and they are only 20mg,and the next 4 days I take one pill and then 1/2 pills for the last four days. I am watching want I eat. My neck was so red,it looked horrible.I will be alright. I took a nap after wards and my boy-friend came over and we are watching t.v.I had a great talk with my therapist and she helped me alot. I am going to take it easy and relax. I just wanted to let everyone know how I am doing. I am tired,but I will be alright.I have not done any SI and there are times that it is not easy for me,but I am hanging in there. I am going to stay cool,cause it is hot outside. I will be back on the bus later on.
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.

I had a great evening with my boy-friend,we watched t.v.,and took it easy. My boy-friend just left and he went home to get some sleep. I finally wrote in my journal and that helped me alot,to deal with feelings and emotions that were bothering me. I have cleaning to do tomorrow and my nurse is coming over to do my medication. I have not done any SI today,and even though the urges are there,I am fighting them. I just have to take my medication before I go to bed. I just wanted to let everyone know how I am doing. I am doing alright,just tired.I am going to watch t.v.,for awhile and then go to bed. I will be back on the bus sometime tomorrow. Have a great night everyone.

Hey Candy, keep fighting those urges, you're doing great. I hope your allergies get better for you soon, and try not to worry about putting on weight because medicines don't effect everyone in the same way. I'm glad that writing in your journal is helping with the urges and bothersome feelings, I think that writing is great for that.

Thanks for the nice messages that you sent me. I got most of my cleaning done in my apartment,cause it needed it. I had a great night sleep,and I am doing alright. I will probably relax the rest of the day and write in my journal later on,and it does help me alot. My nurse will be over later to do my medication. It is hard to fight the urges of SI,but I try very hard not to slip. I just wanted to let everyone know how I am doing.I am going to watch t.v and take it easy for awhile,then get back to work around here. I will keep myself busy today and keep my mind focus. I will be back on the bus later on.

I got most of my cleaning done today,even though my power was turn off for awhile,due to the fact that they had some work to do with the apartments that they are fixing,it will be like this for next 3 days,but at least I will not be here for the first two days,cause I will be at program. I am doing alright.I have not done any SI today,but the urges and the thoughts are bothering me,and I am trying to keep myself busy,so I do not slip with SI. I know that my boy-friend will be here around 5 or 5:30 pm,and we are going out to visit some friends,and I am not sure if I will be back on the bus the rest of the day,cause I have to go to day treatment program tomorrow,so I am relaxing and waiting for him to get here. I did not get a chance to write in my journal today,but I did write in it last night,I feel bad when I do not write in it,but there are other days that I can write,or use other coping skills that I have. Ijust wanted to let everyone know how I am doing. I am hanging in there and doing the best I can.I am going to be alright and take care of myself. I will try to be back on it before I leave. hanging in there

We went visiting some friends tonight and I did not feel right after the SI that happen earlier,I feel angry at myself for Slipping and I am trying very hard not to let it get to me.I am watching t.v.and relaxing till I go to bed. I am doing alright,just not feeling good about myself for what happen,I know that I need to let it go,not easy though. I just wanted to let everyone know how I am doing.I have day treatment program tomorrow,so I will be back on the bus later in the evening.I am taking care of myself right now,and being on the bus helps me alot. I will be alright and I promise myself that if I do not feel safe,to either get on the bus or call someone.I am getting tired and I need some sleep,which is the best thing for me. I will be back on tomorrow.

I can not get to sleep,just feel restless. I would rather be here,cause I feel safe here.I am just watching t.v.,and trying to think good thoughts. This is one bad day for me,but I have to remember that it will pass,and when I am program tomorrow,I will talk to my therapist about this. If anyone has any coping skills that they think that will help me,please post it here,thanks alot.Once I get to sleep I will be fine,it is hard getting there,but I will get tired sooner or later.If I am not on the bus later on,I went to bed,so everyone knows. I took my medication and I am getting tired,so I am going to lay down and try to get some sleep.I will be back on the bus tomorrow sometime.

I had a great day at program,and then I came home and took a nap. I am trying to find where I can get a bracelet for SI and a free newsletter for SI,if anyone knows of any information,please let me know. I am going to take a walk with my boy-friend and then I am going to write in my journal later on,and try to use my coping skills when I feel the urges to do SI. I feel bad about what happen last night with SI,but to remember not to be to hard on myself and move on,it is not always easy.I am hanging in there and doing the best I can. I just wanted to let everyone know how I am doing.I am just taking care of myself right now.I will be back on the bus later on.

I am doing alright,just frustrated,cause my mother is getting on my nerves,she likes to yell at me for everything,but I am not going to let her get to me. I am going to relax and watch t.v.,till my boy-friend gets here.I did not write in my journal yet,but hopefully I will get to it later or tomorrow.I just wanted to let everyone know how I am doing.I took my evening medication and I am not sure what we are going to do later on. I will be back on the bus later on.

I am doing alright so far. I went to the store with my boy-friend and then we went for a walk,and we are sitting here watching t.v.. I have not done any SI today,and I am proud of myself for that. I did not write in my journal tonight,but I will try harder to write in it tomorrow. It has been a busy day for me. I just wanted to let everyone know how I am doing. I am going to watch t.v,and then later I will go to bed.It felt good to take a walk,and it helped to get rid of the anxiety and the stress that I have been feeling. I will be back on the bus later.
