I am Rachel and I am 29 years old. I have been clean from self harm for 1 year, 5 months and 20 days! It is hard to get through the urges but when I do I am so incredibly proud of myself! I hope I can inspire others!
Woohoo!
That is incredible! You should be so proud of yourself!
What are some things you have used as healthier interventions?
Good for you!! Each time you fight the urge, you get stronger! I’m truly happy for you. And welcome!
Welcome! That is such a wonderful accomplishment
I do a lot of positive self talk, I also like to make friendship bracelets because it keeps my hands busy, listen to music , nap, pet my cats !
Those are all super incredible! Never underestimate the power of a nap. There is a huge difference between avoidance behaviour and a much needed reset. Naps are sacred to me. Although I dont nap. I sleep. 2 hours min.
What kind of friendship bracelets do you make? Macrame?
Congratulations on your time! This is brilliant, you are my inspiration, for sure! God bless you.
Yes you do inspire
Thank you
I just make them with string and pick a couple colors to use! It takes a bit to make so it’s a good distraction:)
