Why doesn’t it hurt anymore

@Buildingadoor What was your healthy alternative? How were you able to stop?

@Colonelmustardseed drawing, going out window shopping or spending time in a cafe, basically stay in public places and keep my hands busy. I was going out so much that the homeless folks all knew me and would say hi. If I had the urge at night, I would go on a mental health support chatroom and chat with others so my hands were busy typing. I'd chat aggressively, with more than 2 people at once so that t would always be typing.

@Colonelmustardseed also, setting daily goals. I'd keep checking the boxes, it made me kinda happy to get shit done that I'd usually procrastinate on. Keep them hands busyyyyyyyyy
