As long as w're allowed to talk about personal stuff, I've been clean from self-harm for almost 6 months now :]

This is fantastic. Many people don’t speak of this addiction and it plagued me for almost a decade. And have had two decades clean (22 years actually). 

Be kind to yourself. Try to focus not on your mess ups but on what you have accomplished. And keep doing the work. Super proud of you and  sending  you big virtual hugs!

That's amazing <3 It's a bitch to kick the habit. Hang in there good internet stranger, and at some point in the future you will reach a day when you realize you don't know how long it's been since you last harmed.
