TW: SH I was almost 50 days clean from self harm (that equates to a month and 17 days), but I am in a depressive episode… today was day 11 in a row of being depressed physically. I have felt numb emotionally for so long that my coping skills for self harm didn’t work, and I relapsed. Has this happened to anyone else?

      I am 41 years old and feel like I am too old to do this, but after years and a super bad episode where I couldn’t get my crying and emotions under control I did too. I am disgusted with myself but just have to move forward and not continue.

      I feel you! I was about 2yrs clean but some self-hate got the worst of me in November. It happens! I don’t think it’s anything to be ashamed over either! Find the little things in life that make life feel happier. For me it’s my pets.

      I was over a year clean and relapsed after my roommates got mad about some coffee and started calling me some awful names. It happens, and it's nothing to be ashamed over!

      This actually happened to me today too.. I hadn't actually harmed myself in years but I have a really bad anxiety, depressive episode and self harmed :( It happens and we just have to be patient with ourselves, but it is hard..
