hey everyone.
okay, so lately i havent really had the urge to injure, but even though im not triggered, i do it anyway….. im wondering why i injure when im not triggered. does anyone have a logical reason as to why i injure when im not triggered???
also, im starting to feel like my friends are tired of hearing about my problems. i get the feeling that, sure they care, they just are tired of me and all that im going through… :/ i feel as if i cant help them with their problems because of mine… and when i cant help them, i feel worthless. :-[
i just need some advice on the whole injuring when not triggered thing, the other part is me just blabing.

I think it may be that your mind is playing games with you. They same thing happened to me on my off days. When i didnt get the urge to SI i felt as is i had to do it. But that was just me.

this is like exactally how ive been feeling for the ast two weeks.
and the same thing happened to me !
i thought about why alot and the only thing i can think of is that even though yu dont feel it whatever was triggering you before is still there,
mabye try some yoga or typing all your feelings like everything out on microsoft word.. it sounds funny but i did it and it feels good. for me its almost the same as talking to a friend
thats just my take on it, and thats what i think is happening to me
im sorry i cant give you anything solid
good luck !

Hi Katey,
Your situation is very common to anyone who SIs. That is because SI is an addiction. Some people think SI-ing is just like alcohol and drugs, hard to stop once you start.
For a simple example, take messing with your fingernails. It’s more of a habit than an addiction but it will work for my example…
Someone can mess with their nails all the time, but sometimes they will just randomly start doing so wether they are upset, nervous, boredom, or just nothing at all. Your head gets used to it and you brain automatically want to keep up with your routine. There is a term for what you brain does but I don’t know it right now.
I’ve went through this personally, seen friends go through this, all and all if you want to stop doing Si withoug being triggered, just try to stop SI completley. Talk to someone. Hope I helped.
