    I am really proud of myself! No cutting for this long! I have had times where I really want to, but therapy has helped me a lot to identify what gets me so upset, so that I can solve the problem. Congratz to anyone else who has stopped, and keep trying to those who haven't! It feels like I'm finally free of the habit that controlled me for so long!

    awww thats really great!!!!!
    i haven't cut myself since july 6th!!!!
    all i've had to help me stop is my mates, no councillors or professionals or anything :)
    all my mates are really proud of me :) and i feel a bit like it's one less thing to worry about!!!!!
    and i don't wanna start again because i would be letting my mates down and thats the only reason i've stopped, for my mates!!!!!
    anywayz don't be tempted to do it again because if you count up how many weeks and dayz you haven't done it for, and then you do it again, it makes it go back to 0 days!!!!
    mine is 4 weeks and 4 days!!!!!! :D im so happy!!!!
    luv RaNdOmGaL xxx

    See? This is the true power of friendship. Put your faith in your friends and ask for their help, and almost anything is possible. Congratulations for being able to stay away from it for so long. You and your friends should feel very proud. Keep it up. >^_^<

    Yeah whoever said only professional help can help you, lied. All you need is a decent set of friends. They can see you through anything!
    Every single one of you should be proud of yourselves, no matter how long or short you've stopped for, because stopping at all is an accomplishment in itself!
    Proud of you all,
    Kim xXx

    The first month is the hardest. Congrats to you for being so strong (and intelligent) as to help yourself get better. :D *cheers and throws big party*

    I haven't cut in about two years! I've wanted to a couple times, but then I go into the garage and play my guitar and sing a bit and write a few poems and there's no urge anymore.

    My friends have been so great in supporting me, I honestly beleive they saved my life. I understand why people do it, but I still think it's kind of stupid.
    I thought it was stupid when I did it. I'm just glad I'm not doing it anymore, and I'm glad to see other people are doing the same *I'm not alone, yay!*

    Luv ya
    ♥Niki

    Kim, I disagree, my friends wern't there for me. Some people really might rely on thier friends, but I couldn't. They didn't know what to do with me, and kind of just avoided the situation. Without professional help I would probably be dead right now, or still in Overlake. It's great that you all have someone you can turn to, to help you with this problem. I wish I had that.
