i keep looking at my old self harm pics and pictures on my tumblr keep popping up and my arms are burning. I really miss my arms being covered… the feeling of the scars that I could run my hands over. i felt like a tiger hahah a fucking tiger… but i made a promise to my mom and to myself i wouldnt but its hard. hahah hard isnt the right word its torture.

5 days is actually a really long time. I’m currently at 3 and a half months, and I promise it gets easier…2 weeks was my breaking point, 3 caused me to crack, but if I made it one more week, I was fine. I get urges once a week now and they pass quickly. Just keep breathing. Try drawing on yourself with sharpie or marker…maybe tiger stripes so you can feel like a tiger again.
Thanks for the suggestions <3 I'm glad you've managed to be so strong! It's inspiring 🙂 much love!
