What motivates you to try a coping thing instead of si'ing?
I really don't want to hurt people.. that's why I hurt myself to start, so no one else would have to deal with my problems.. so if hurting myself hurts people I love, then I don't want to.
If you had to move twice to cope i.e. move your body, what would you do?
1)Cover my body completely (stockings, pants, gloves, long sleeves, anything I can so that I have to undress myself completely to si)
2) Go for a run
It's three o'clock in the afternoon and you want to si, what can you do instead?
Go online see if my boyfriend or any friends are on, call someone, basically anything so I don't feel alone, watch tv, make bracelets, basically just try to kill time.
You decide at four o'clock that you couldn't possibly not si but then decide that maybe you can, what would you do to increase your chances of not si'ing?
I would remind myself that I love someone sooooo much, and it would kill me if I found out they had..so I think it would work the other way around too and I'd probably try to go be by someone who would make me feel loved and appreciated.
List five coping things that work for you.
1) just going and being by myself to cry
2) talking to someone who will either sympathize or cheer me up
3) watching tv or reading
4) running
5) writing, definitely my best coping method (the contents of my head spilled on paper, with no judgements, other than my own. VERY CURIOUS.)
Take six eggs and paint them six different colours: what colours would you choose?
Probably green, blue, blue-purplish shade of color I found on a grape amp tab, red, light blue, lavender or anything that would make me feel calm. (yes red does make me feel calm.... or maybe that's just a connection to si.... I dunno.)
You have seven minutes to invent the coping wheel: what have you invented?
Seven minutes of utter insanity. Probably just a piece of paper with a circle I drew and colored in with words spiraling... things I find inspiring like quotes, names of people I love, coping methods and distractions, personal reasons for not SIing..ect.
Eight minutes are up and the hens laid two extra eggs. If you could paint how they do in the film 'Mary Poppins', on the pavement: what pictures would you paint on the two eggs? (if you've not seen the film, it's a picture that you can jump into and then you're transported there)
1) Probably wherever Brady is, so I can take him with me to my second egg.
2) Our special place <3.
Would you ever consider reciting the nine times table to take your mind off hurting yourself?
Yes, I probably would, and then I'd use the finger trick, but I like the idea of an odd # times 3 plus 1, ect, ect.. it'd probably keep me busy longer.
The hens are getting pretty fed up with this current egg-demand: what ten things will you say to them, to encourage them to not give up laying eggs?
1) Please don't give up on me.
2) If you do give up, people will hate you!
3) Giving up never fixes anything. Just leaves you hopeless.
4) I'm pretty sure no one will feed you if you give up because you'll be useless in consideration to some people, and they'll probably let you starve or kill you.
5) I'll make you live with me if you give up! (hopefully that'd be enough to scare 'em back into laying more eggs)
6) There are people who still need you.
7) Don't be silly, giving up isn't an option.
8.) c'mon, people wanna eat your babies!
9) Stupid chicken.
10) Nuuuuuuuuuuuuu! I love baby birdies, and BESIDES, I just wanna paint on your eggs so I can go to magical places, it's not like I'd actually **eat them.. ;D
