-- Posted by PhoenixFire613 at 12:24 am on June 29, 2008 Well, so far I haven't cut myself for about 19 days now. I know it doesn't seem like a very long time, but it's the longest I've gone without cutting for a very long time. I'm hoping that I can keep it up and not fuck it up. I'm desperate to stop cutting, because I know how much it hurts those that care about me when I cut. Also, I want to stop because I'm worried that someday, I'll cut too deep and seriously injure myself. Wish me luck on keeping this up. -- Posted by iinsurgent at 12:25 am on June 29, 2008 This is me, wishing you luck. -- Posted by HatesYou at 12:25 am on June 29, 2008 Good luck. I wish most cutters had this same point of view. -- Posted by sosupkthnx at 12:25 am on June 29, 2008 I'm so proud of you and happy for you :) I know you will be able to stop it forever -- Posted by Jewboy at 12:26 am on June 29, 2008 good luck, and can u add me as friend? i wanna talk to u about sumthin -- Posted by Arcarius at 12:26 am on June 29, 2008 Go you. -- Posted by BREAKBOY at 12:26 am on June 29, 2008 keep up the good work =)  ever heard of TWLOHA? -- Posted by plumc0la at 12:27 am on June 29, 2008 good luck!! seriously. i used to cut. i stopped and now im really happy that i did. you just need to find other outlets for your pain. -- Posted by AsinineMusicalEmoAzh at 12:27 am on June 29, 2008 I love you and keep it up girleh! -- Posted by ehmusic at 12:28 am on June 29, 2008 Good luck. It's a very, very hard thing to do. I know that it's the hardest thing that I've ever had to stop. 19 days may not seem like a long time, but that's a huge step, and most likely the hardest one. You just need to keep it up, figure out what triggers you and avoid it, and find other things to do, to get your mind off of it whenever you feel the urge to self-harm. If you need to talk, feel free to message me. :) EDIT: Have you heard of The Butterfly Project?  It has been a useful tool in helping a lot of people quit. -- Posted by Special Agent Orange at 12:30 am on June 29, 2008 good luck to you then -- Posted by itoldyou at 12:32 am on June 29, 2008  good luck. you can do it!   -- Posted by W o n d e r l a n d at 12:40 am on June 29, 2008 Thats Great!

And no, I haven't heard of TWLOHA or The Butterfly Project. Care to tell me a bit about them? I don't really know much about To Write Love On Her Arms...but, in my original post, if you'll click on the blue part that says The Butterfly Project, it will take you to a site that tells all about it.:) -- Posted by Mazy at 1:42 am on June 29, 2008 well done I'm sure you can stick it out -- Posted by muphnplutonic at 2:06 am on June 29, 2008 Well done. That's truly inspirational. Keep it up and make us proud! As soon as you feel like doing it, come on here. And we'll give you other things to do :) -- Posted by PhoenixFire613 at 3:47 pm on June 30, 2008 Again, thanks everyone. And I checked out the link, ehmusic. Sounds pretty cool! I think that I might try it. -- Posted by tragic romance at 5:25 pm on July 5, 2008 good luck hun, i admire your strenghth <3 -- Posted by Im Hiding at 8:03 pm on July 5, 2008 Obviously I wish you luck, but I would also like to offer you a little bit of insight on what you are doing to your mental stability.  Yeahyeahyeahyeah, you mention what you are doing to those around you, but that should be the last of your worries.  Cutting yourself not only hurts you physically, but it KILLS you emotionally.  How many times have you actually cut yourself and been like, 'MAN, THAT WAS GREAT!!!'... No, all it does is promote yourself to feel bad for yourself. Just don't do it.  Eat ice cream instead! -- Posted by Crimsonpain at 7:23 am on July 6, 2008 good luck, I'm a cutter too and haven't cut for a month and a half, so I believe in u although I know how hard it is don't give up. pm if ya wanna talk:P -- Posted by Nikki2305 at 11:10 pm on July 6, 2008 YAY! GO TIFF! LOVE YOU! <3
