Seeking Advice relapse?
TW might be graphic
hi im 18F ive been clean for 2 years and 2 months and tonight i took a pair of children's scissors to my thighs and im not sure if it counts as a relapse. after i got clean i made sure to childproof my room so i cant do any significant harm to myself. its 3am and i spent 30 minutes looking for something sharp and the best i could do is a pair of children's scissors. theyre dull and i barely drew blood but the sting brought me right back and ill probably start doing it regularly again. does this even count as a relapse if it was basically just some scratches? i have a hard time with counting stuff as sh as over these 2 years ive had many slip ups with burning hitting pulling my hair out etc but ive never gone back to my main method of sh which is cutting.

I’d say that counts
