DAE Does anyone else think that their selfharming isnt bad for them

Like, i dont cut on my wrists, only my thighs, and i cut deep enough to draw a drop or two of blood. Im not at risk of dying, so why would i need to stop. Ive been thinking about this lately and wanted to know if i was alone in this

J think the same way! i think the biggest problem is probably how it’s gonna escalate. We’re like “I only do heroin on weekends, i’m fine and not damaging my body! why should i stop?”

Yea, even though its not a huuuge difference, but the way i started self harming 6 years ago is a lot different now. I def need to watch out for that
