this dosnt always work but i know people that have really positive results to this: if it gets so bad that you just have to SI then get a red felt tip pen and draw a red line where u want to cut.

I've managed to stop SI'ing for at least 2 years now.
I SI'd all the time when i was younger cuz things were so crap.
I kept a diary. Found people to talk to about the things that were making me do it.
Do you know the causes of you feeling numb?
What was making everything go so well?
If you still have that then use it. If you could stop for nearly a year then your strong enough to stop for good.
If you need anyone to talk to privately i'd be happy to listen.
You can do it =]

I agree with what everyone's saying here. you have to distract yourself from the numbness.
I've been SI free for 3 years now. There are times where i think about picking where i left off, but the truth is it's enpowering to know that i can get through everything and still be SI free.
like everyone says, buy a notepad and everyday write. it doesn't really matter what you write as long as you're writing. about the weather, your day, and soon enough you'll be able to write about how you're feeling.
Also, if it gets bad, get a luckyband. (Hair lucky) and wear it on your wrist. whenever you feel like hurting yourself flick the luckyband on your wrist... it helps. you get that pain but no cuts. but you can stop...

ehhh..
hurting yourself either way, be it with a rubber band, knife, hitting yourself... in the end its all still Self harm..
You need to find something that you can show the true you through it.
Your an amazing person, i can see it... but im not so sure that you can right now.
Light shines in the darkness my friend, just look for the light.

Sanity, everyo ne relapses, its sadly all apart of recovery. It's good that you see it as not being a positive thing, but you should NOT feel bad or guilty about it. if you need to talk im hear for you darlin

I agree that all have relapses... and I believe that relapses are needed. Because if you can get past this relapse you know that you have truely recovered.... and that recovery is a choice, because you know you can stop, no matter how hard it is, you can because you have proved it to yourself.
So is this a relapse a proof of victory or just starting over?
And writing is a great idea that should help, and this is going to sound really dumb, but when you feel the urge the need find an upbeat song something that you know makes you want to dance or rock out, and nine times out of ten you will cease the urge.
