What do you do when you havent cut in awhile but the urge comes back strong?

@AlphaPuppy: cigs are nice but I'm out 😢

@booobear99: Yeah, its just another form of self harming though

Wohoa, a hammer?.. if you treat yourself like that, you're undermining your value and I don't need to know you to tell you that you don't deserve that.
There's other means of venting out your feelings, inflicting pain on yourself is a temporary solution to a temporary problem. Put your frustration into something worthwhile, and start giving yourself some respect because being good to yourself shows others how they should treat you too. Giving up on yourself means others give up on you. Whatever caused you to do this, is what you should focus on so you can learn to move from it, although yes it's a gradual process.
Just don't make yourself suffer more than you already are.

Honestly a hammer is nothing compared to the pain of branding myself and carving into my legs... I was in a very bad place, and I'm still not out of there yet. I'm improving slowly but occasionally it all gets too much and inflicting pain on myself is the only way to prevent myself attempting suicide again

@AlphaPuppy: How do you feel after doing it?

@HijabbaDabbaDoo: A lot better

@AlphaPuppy: what about a week later from then?

@HijabbaDabbaDoo: Doesn't bother me, im in near constant pain anyway
