    Okay seeing as the 23rd would have been my one year of no cutting if i hadn't relasped i wanted to start a project. At first i thought it could just be my journey. Then i thought why not get all people at EC who self-harm involved. Then as i got thinking i thought why not get all of the people at EC who are struggling with a bad addiction (as in not a 'i want to stop biting my nails' addiction). I'm thinking drugs, alcohol, self-harm (hitting, burning, cutting, choking, ect.), ect type of addiction (even pornography if you wish).

    I have a whole post to write up about it. But its basically as a group we use the date October 23rd as a stopping date that we'll all make a vow to stop our addictions. Don't worry or complain about all of the details. I have everything worked out from A to Z. I just want to know if you like the IDEA. ok?

    I cut myself once or twice this year ^_^ but i was a little bit stupid, i still have silly thoughts, but i'll be fine....

    This is a good idea for all those who have a serious problem though!

    Couldn't hurt to try with a group,but trying to just stop the addiction would be kinda hard to have such a serious problem,then just stop.Thats like trying to quit smoking after yrs of chainsmoking,but if this group thing were to happen I'd help out only cause I cut for a long time,and was able to quit and find other resources to let my frustrations out!
    Good luck with this
