Coping Skills We Can All Use

Copyright, Kat

My name is Kat. I’ve written my stories here before. But now I am kinda proudly saying I have been SI free for a good 2-3 months.

Coping skills I use are:

  • I take a cool shower when I feel like cutting. Then I put as little clothes on as possible and go into my bedroom. I lay on my bed and enjoy the cool sheets on my bed. Amazingly enough, feeling stuff that is cool (temperatur-wise) takes my mind away from the burning sensations I once cut for.
  • The rubberband technique: Snap on the wrists when an urge comes.
  • I talk to people I dont know about it. Like all of you online! It’s actually kinda nice to know that they don’t know you and can’t judge you.

Anyone who wants to talk to me AIM: coolpsykochick
