It makes my friends upset
And it's hey babe, with your guardian eyes so blue,
Hey my baby, don't you know our love is true,
I've been so far from here,
Far from your loving arms,
Now I'm back again, and babe it's gonna work out fine.

because i knew people would be disappointed if they found out, and i would never want to hurt them :shakehead:

It`s been a while since I`ve self injured.I believe it`s been the longest time I`ve gone without it in years.It`s not been easy.I`ve been tempted for sure.I didn`t give in again because I didn`t want to dissapoint my mother.I didn`t want her to see the bandage on my arm in the morning.It`s been difficult but I am trying.

If I do my girlfriend will insist on taking me to A&E when she gets home from work, and I don't want to sit in A&E all night or worse have to talk to the Crisis Team.

i know 'only one more time' with me always turns into a relapse

i have enough problems without adding SI to the list

SI won't solve anything (would likely make it worse)

SI would undo all the outstanding progress that I have made in the last almost 4 years.

it would not only harm myself physically, but would also smash down the confidence other people had in me.
