Today for 4 years ago was the last time I self harmed and I pretty god damn proud over myself for that, hell yee booii!

Year eight is complete.

It has been hard for some time not to fall back on bad habits. I still get the urges relatively often. But I am glad to say that I still have managed to refrain.

Even if it temporarily numbs the senses, it only brings more pain after it has abated.

Here's to starting year 9 self-harm free.

Today I completed my seventh year of being self-harm free. Naively in my first few post I thought I had lived through the worst in my life. It hit me upside the head with a wrecking ball. So much fucking shit has happened in those seven years.

But I am still alive. Still fighting for myself.

Happy year four to me.

I have been Self harm free for three whole years now. I think. My perception of time is seriously out of wack. Time always bends weirdly around me. Anyways I am proud of myself for making it this far. I never really thought I could do it. I probably developed other not so healthy coping mechanisms but what can you do.

Forgot that I've completed year nine of being #selfharmfree as of boxing day, I think.

Can't remember anymore. Which is nice. Though a family member is engaging in behaviours and it's breaking my heart. There is nothing more that I can do right now, but support and don't judge. And promise that it does get get better. I've tried to tell 'em that we need to find other coping skills than that, but they are still so young and in crisis. I hope one day they will stop too.

Usually I make some big thought out post for my #SelfHarmFree anniversary. This year, y'all get last night's hot chocolate selfie. Because honestly there's not much to say this year. I'm 7 years free. I've been in a fog lately but if I didn't have this day engraved in my memory, for the first time it might have just passed me by. Because this fog I'm in isn't negative, it's a little numb but it's not negative. Normally there's this underlying dread about today, creeps in about a week prior whether I know it or not. That didn't happen this year. For once I feel like I came into today with a pride I've never felt before, because those urges aren't there and that haven't been. https://www.instagram.com/p/CMZdPQHFm6b/?igshid=ljyl9ew73n79
