Exercise Rubber Bands
What can I do instead of cutting?
Serious suggestions from someone who actually has experience with this… Sorry but rubber bands don’t help, texting friends doesn’t help, exercise.. helps, yes. But it’s kinda hard to exercise when you wake up at 2am and you need a cut.
=/ I’m trying to stop for my boyfriend
First off, it’s amazing that you’re willing to stop and you’re trying. To me, that is a sure sign that you will succeed. However, you will need help, because you’re human and that’s how we all are.
Okay, when you’re having a cutting urge at a time where you can’t exercise or talk to someone, turn on your radio. Just listen to whatever’s playing, figure out the words, get lost in the music. That’s especially an easy thing to do when you’re trying to get to sleep. If you need more than that, try watching a movie…interesting enough to keep your mind busy but not so interesting you can’t fall asleep while watching. Also, try texting or calling your boyfriend. If you’re stopping for him, then he is a key person to help you. If things get to the point where you can’t handle it on your own, please wake up a family member. I know it’s not comfortable, but your health and happiness is worth more than comfort.
If you’re actually awake and have some time, some good things to do are journal…it helps you get the feelings out and get to the core issues. Find something that you really really really love to do, something that makes time fly. Do it whenever you want to cut. Also, talk to someone. Anyone really. Just stay around someone else. You don’t have to talk about what’s bugging you, although it would be helpful if you did, just be in human presence. It helps. It really does.
If you ever need someone to talk to, my email is mariellensusankateness@gmail.com. I’ve dealt with depression, self harm, and anorexia.
Stay strong, love. You’re beautiful and worth so much. Please don’t let this define you…this journey to recovery is going to be hard, but it’s worth it. Don’t let the hard parts wear you down. Keep pushing on. Please. This world needs you, cut-free. You have such a wonderful life ahead of you after you kick this thing. You’re going to be okay. There is so much life after this, it isn’t even funny. You’re perfect just the way you are. Please don’t let anyone tell you differently. Hang in there, babe. I love you!
p.s. and the tearing up pieces of paper idea from the second person is amazing. I’ve done it myself and it’s one of the most helpful things to do.
