GG - read my reply to your post about SMA!

I know all about self-mutilators already. there are no meetings here where i am! Though i did start my own, but i don't get down there. it's too far and not what i expected it to be.

thanks for doing my post for me though.
I kinda feel stupid posting about it now.
i'll wait til i have an urge and then i'll post my feelings.

Ain't nothing stupid about you, (((((Skiss)))))!! As long as you post BEFORE you do anything else, OK?

Love and hugs,
Eddie

Nothing stupid about posting to get rid of the thoughts that could cause us harm.

Since you already know about SMA and it's only in NY, here's another link that may be useful. http://www.self-injury-abuse-trauma-...age-boards.htm

Addictions come in so many forms...because an addict is who I am. I practice recovery on a 24 hour basis and it has been 5 years worth of 24 hours so far. I had to lay it all out on the line...and talking to your sponsor about it is showing prayers are working. Keep up the good work...and listen to your sponsor. Obession turns to focus! You will see what I mean when you reach steps 6 and 7. I'll be praying for yeah.

Hi Skiss!
If it was that, I used to cut myself, I still have a couple scars from it. Sometimes I feel the need to do so today. Another one I think I have is not feeling happy or fulfilled unless I'm in love or at least got the butterflies for a guy I'm dating.
I truly believe that we become addicts if two factors are true for us. I believe it's a combination of our genes and our life experience that cause us to look outside ourselves to feel happy. An addict could have just as easily become addicted to alcohol as he/she could have to a different drug of 'choice.' That's why we can often see our addiction take different forms. Hope my 2 cents helps a tiny bit.

Hey, ((((Skiss)))) !! I know you've started several threads since this one, but I wanted to see if you were still reading the responses. And I just wanted to remind you that you are loved!!

Love and hugs,
Eddie
