The last time I wanted to SI I didn't because my friend and I talked late into the night and she helped me realize that I didn't need to.

Didn't because I knew I had made it so long, and my T would be disappointed.

It doesn't help. It just ruins my arms and gives me something else to be upset about.
Act in such a way as to make yourself feel capable and effective

The change starts now.

If in doubt, don't

i scratched up the computer desk instead of myself!
i scream for the sunlight or a car to take me anywhere
just get me past this dead and eternal snow
cause i swear that i'm dying, slowly but it's happening
so if the perfect spring is waiting somewhere
just take me there
and lie to me and say it’s going to be alright

Because I knew my boyfriend, who has been so understanding and supportive of me stopping, would be sad if I did.

...I didn't want to tell my T the following day!

...I didn't want to deal with covering it up!

...I didn't want to let myself down!

...I knew it wouldn't help much.

...'cause I could stop.
