This isnt heard a lot, unfortuanatly some self harmers dont want to stop.I know how you feel.Try googleing the butterfly project, it helped my friend stop.Avoid all sharps and triggers.Either throw away razors, knifes, what ever you use, or put them in a very hard place for you to get to, or give them to someone trusted to lock them up.Tell someone, you cant do this alone even though its hard to tell someone.Tips for even asking on here.This is going to dound suuuuuuuuuuper weird, but take off the sleeves bracelets bandages or whatever.Seeing them is hard at first, let it heal.Even one less cut a day or week is an improvment.Try writing inspirational phrases wherever you cut.It takes time.Talk to someone trusted anytime you feel the urge, hopefully not someone not pro self harm.Try snapping a loose rubberband on your arm when you want to cut.Invest in a red ink pen and draw in the cuts while using the rubber band or queezing ice colored red.Im always here inbox me whenever.Stay strong! Dont hurt the baby you used to be.The scars do fade, IT GETS BETTER!! -julia
