Hide anything sharp around you.

Yes, also try not to think about doing it as much.

And uh just... Yes, just talk to someone about it.

Throw away anything sharp

Im using 20% of my brain power cause I am preserving my power but ill add 20% more.

and talk to a ********* or smth

@AbbyTh3UglyW31rd0 Smart.

thérapīst

@ConceptArtist ty

I hope you overcome this habit!

@AbbyTh3UglyW31rd0 Your welcome.

@AbbyTh3UglyW31rd0 my parents dont know so i can't go to therápy

draw on urself with marker or use an elastic band on ur rist and snap it against ur rist

okay start doing little things before you know you are going to want to cut.
ex: when i start to get upset ill cut off all my nail so i cant rip/dig into at my skin

its hard. i never cut but i did have Dermatillomania ill say a prayer best is to look forward to healing its small but it helps dont give up :) u got this <3

@Character-Login7 try telling them even if they get mad

i do it all the time i am now 5 days clean

@ry_r4t Why didnt I think of that, amazing <--

it helps

@zoni_lilly That is also a good option.

ye

You see, we all care about you.

@ry_r4t Yes, we are all caught up in life.

whatever....

@ry_r4t?

im sry for my pointless info

if u feel like cuting softly trace your finger(s) across your skinand take deep breaths

@ry_r4t had a good point with drawing draw thing that make u happy incouraging things too :3 even writing something "dont forget you quitting this okay :)" or reasons why you want to quit sometime its like a trance writing reminder can help u remember why your quitting :) help you to snap out of the urge

@ry_r4t Its not pointless.

yup

I go now.

bye

Bye @ry_r4t!

bye

i used to struggle with that as well. I came over it by just not only stopping but also thinking positive thoughts as well @Character-Login7

Treat your self (ex. don't cut for a week and go to the movies)

There are sites online to look into that can teach you many ways to handle this type of distress. @Character-Login7

i get a rubber band and slap it against my arm when i have the urge, hope this helps

>> if its cold enough wear long sleeve/gloves + jacket/hoodie so the sleeves are tedious to try and remove

>> or wear a lot of bracelets

personally, when i cut im more angry than sad so what i do is i keep a pillow and a knife and i stab the pillow repeatedly untili feel better or i rip paper or throw non-breakable items against the walls

use fingernails instead

Try painting on your legs or use markers

Use fidgets..?

(Maybe??) :'D

brother sorry i didn't notice this paint

i'm so sorry about what ever happened, i cutted myself too and sometimes i still want to. sh'it that's frustrating. life sometimes isn't ''very happy'' but remember that you are so important for me, the friends here are the only real friends that i have so please d it for me ok? i don't like seeing people feel bad

are you okay...? you never vent so i just supposed you were....idk...happy?

@IAmSodax uhhh i wasnt ok then bc family stuff but im doing better now in this moment :3 thx for asking btw

well i hope ur recovering, please know you're loved by people and that you have a future near you

here were my ways when it got bad
-music (full blast)
-red pen/marker
-holding an ice cube in your hand
-reading
-braiding someones hair
-hugging a stuffed animal as hard as you can
-calling a friend
-yoga? (idk either)
-long walks
-try and learn something new
-draw
-cut paper instead
-organize your room
-start a new show
-watching the sunset or the moon
-write a poem
-try a new hobby

hope this helps :grin:

Try hiding it somewhere you wont find it or maybe out the window please get better ( i think im way to late commenting this :| )
