Rachie Posted January 13, 2006 Share Posted January 13, 2006 Hi Smile, Sorry you've done it again today, but well done for yesterday! Do have a look at those links, and if you can, listen to that radio show on Sunday night - it might be helpful. I think it's hard to exercise at the moment - it's cold and it's just been Christmas - I had to force myself to go to the gym the other day as I hadn't been for 4 weeks! Do you have anyone you could do some exercise with - that might motivate you? Maybe the trick is to set yourself very small goals such as reading for 15 minutes or exercising for 10 minutes or whatever. You might find you can then extend those times and if you set short times like that your motivation might kick back in! It's hard but you will feel better if you do try to do more things. Try not to be too hard on yourself - be nice to yourself, you deserve it! Have you arranged another date to meet your aunt? Take care, Rach xx Link to comment
Guest Norwich Star Posted January 13, 2006 Share Posted January 13, 2006 Hi Smile, Rachie has given you some fab advice - I work on the Radio One Sunday Surgery Show and I can tell you for sure that you will find the show informative. There is even a chance that I will be speaking on their this Sunday :blushing: We are all here to support you. Do not look at the 'failures' but keep your mind planted on that one day you succeeded. It's worth a thousand bad days. :hug: :hug: :hug: xx. Link to comment

Guest smile Posted January 15, 2006 Share Posted January 15, 2006 Thanks, I will be in bed by then, but I will find the station for my mum to have a listen to it. x Link to comment
Guest smile Posted January 15, 2006 Share Posted January 15, 2006 Getting the thoughts quite a bit now. I think I am getting fed up with myself for being so lazy and doing nothing. I am also out of routine this weekend, but I am trying to go with the flow because it will only help me in the long run. I am just worried because I have a gp appointment tomorrow and I dont want her to see any new cuts. I definately feel like I need to let out some of this tension that is building. No need to reply, just getting it off my chest x Link to comment
catherine Posted January 15, 2006 Share Posted January 15, 2006 Just to say 'hi' smile and hang on in there Catherine :original: Link to comment
Hurting Posted January 27, 2006 Share Posted January 27, 2006 Hi Smile, Sorry to hear that things are tough at the moment, hope everything went well with your gp. Sending you a hug :hug: . Gayle xoxox Link to comment
Guest smile Posted January 27, 2006 Share Posted January 27, 2006 Thanks Gayle, things are much better in terms of self-harm. I have gone just over a week without self-harming. Although for some reason I feel like I miss it. Today I have had more of those thoughts, but I shouldnt give in. Smile x Link to comment
Northern Star Posted January 27, 2006 Share Posted January 27, 2006 things are much better in terms of self-harm. I have gone just over a week without self-harming. Wheeeeeeeeeeee! F A N T A S T I C!!!!!!!!!! :clapping: :cheer: :cheer: :cheer: :cheer: Link to comment
whitebeam Posted January 30, 2006 Share Posted January 30, 2006 I have gone just over a week without self-harming. Well done from me too :original: . Take care whitebeam Link to comment
Guest smile Posted February 3, 2006 Share Posted February 3, 2006 I havent self-harmed for almost two weeks now, but I am getting the thoughts to now. I think it is because I am getting so fed up with myself for sitting around doing nothing. I really feel like I am going to give in, but I really dont want to. My mum is so pleased that I have stopped and I dont want her to feel bad or think that I am still not doing anything x Link to comment
Rachie Posted February 3, 2006 Share Posted February 3, 2006 Smile, you've done so well for going for 2 weeks without doing it. Can you try what I think you've done before and put it off? So think "I won't do it now but I'll see how I feel this afternoon" and keep trying to put it off like that? Could you do something nice today to distract yourself? Have you met your aunt recently? Could you arrange to see or speak to her? Please try not to self-harm - you're doing so well! Rach xx Link to comment
Guest smile Posted February 3, 2006 Share Posted February 3, 2006 thanks rach, i just think I need that release after all this time. I wouldnt be able to meet with my aunt as its too short notice and she works. I will try to put it off, but I know that there is plenty of time between now and my mums back from work. Thanks for listening x Link to comment
Rachie Posted February 3, 2006 Share Posted February 3, 2006 Please try to occupy yourself with other things. You know you can vent on here as much as you need to. You can PM me any time too. Is there anything nice you'd like to do this afternoon? x Link to comment
Guest smile Posted February 3, 2006 Share Posted February 3, 2006 There isnt much that would have distracted me. I kind of knew I was going to do it. I feel a little better apart from feeling like I have let my mum down. Hopefully that will be it for a while again. Thanks for trying though x Link to comment
Rachie Posted February 3, 2006 Share Posted February 3, 2006 Oh, I'm sorry.... Wish I could have helped more. Let's hope you can go for longer now without doing it. x Link to comment
Guest ca02049 Posted February 3, 2006 Share Posted February 3, 2006 Maybe try and set yourself a target to go for 3 weeks next time. I think you did really well managing nearly two weeks. If you keep increasing your target each time maybe you'll just forget to do it. Try and stay strong and have a peaceful weekend. Link to comment
Guest smile Posted February 4, 2006 Share Posted February 4, 2006 Well I dont think I am going to last longer this time. I have really messed things up and sent an email that I shouldnt have. Now I am in a position I dont want to be in. I am just so annoyed with myself and I know what will make me feel better. Why dont I just think properly before I do anything to not hurt others x Link to comment
Rachie Posted February 4, 2006 Share Posted February 4, 2006 Smile, are you sure this email will have upset someone? If you want to tell me about it then please feel free. Remember if you harm yourself it will only feel better for a little while. Please talk to me about what's bothering you instead if you can. xx Link to comment
Guest smile Posted February 4, 2006 Share Posted February 4, 2006 Thanks rach, I have sent you a pm regarding the email I have sent, maybe you can understand a little more. I have already self-harmed again. Just needed the release and werent going to get it anywhere else. Just hoping things dont get any worse otherwise my mood may really drop. Link to comment
Guest smile Posted February 7, 2006 Share Posted February 7, 2006 Have managed to go from friday, but now I am getting urges to self-harm again. Everything just seems to be building up. Not being able to speak to my friend, worrying about the possibility of going back to work after two years away and the lack of motivation to do anything but sit in all day. Link to comment
Northern Star Posted February 7, 2006 Share Posted February 7, 2006 Well done smile; the fact that you have mananged to go from Fri without SH is really positive :original: :hug:. It might not always seem like it but you are doing so well. If I remember rightly, there was a time when you were SH-ing every day? See how far you've come :original:. As to the urges today, would it help to keep distracted on here? I can be here for you to talk to for about the next hour if that would help? Link to comment
