DAY FIVE
WELCOME BACK
SELF HARM AND SELF INJURY RECOVERY PATH
SELF HARM ADDICTION & SELF INJURY ADDICTION JOURNEY
Today we are going to
talk about specific things we can do to help us stop self harm.
Start with knowing that
you CAN quit.
Remember the Hope and Believe page?
Many times we have set
in our heads that "this time is really going to be my last ...
Well ... until I get upset
again." Or the thought process of saying you are going to quit ... But
believing deep down, that you can't. You are always going to be
like this. You are never going to change. You are stuck like this
forever. Its just part of who I am.
THOSE are whispers from
the father of lies (Satan).
John 8:44
He (satan) was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not
in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he
speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar,
and the father of it.
|
You have to have HOPE
before you can even BEGIN to imagine yourself quitting.
Most self harm because
they don't know what else to do to escape.
Which is exactly HOW to
quit.
FIND A HEALTHY
REPLACEMENT FOR COPING INSTEAD OF SELF HARM.
SELF HARM AND SELF INJURY RECOVERY CURE
SELF HARM ADDICTION & SELF INJURY ADDICTION HOPE
When you feel
overwhelmed, make a list of other things you could do instead. keep
that list posted everywhere you frequent. Things like writing,
listening to music, running/exercise, drawing, painting, write a
letter to someone to say hello, pray, read the Bible, recite all the
Bible verses you know out loud, memorize verses to recite to
yourself out loud.
Be with someone or call
someone. It would be great to have one person in your life that knew
specifically that you were struggling with it that you could call or
even have them call and check on you ... Like accountability.
Think about it ... How
many people harm themselves with someone sitting next to them?
VERY few to none.
When someone harms
themselves, they do it alone. (Unless they are doing it as peer
pressure to try to fit in.)
Think about it ...
It is PRIVATE.
It is SECRET.
Some people just need
to talk to someone. Some need to be able to just ... Get everything
out.
James 5:16
Confess your faults one to another, and
pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual
fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much.
|
Tell
someone about everything that is weighing on their heart and mind.
Some people need someone to help them figure out how to deal or fix
issues in their life.
Consider creating a
SECRET BOX filled with potential escapes.
What things make you
smile? You can place someone's phone number within the box, pictures
of your favorite memories, your favorite uplifting CD, a book that
always makes you laugh, a funny movie ... Anything that helps YOU feel
better. This box is used when you are struggling. You open it and
it gives you options instead of running to harm yourself.
Here is another idea
...
Hold ice.
Sounds weird?
If you are into the
"physical pain relieving the emotional pain" ideology, this idea
might work for you. It gives the sensation of physical pain holding
it in your hand or rubbing it on your skin, but it does not leave
scars, blood and it doesn't actually hurt you or anyone in your life
as you overcome the addiction of Self Harm.
Again, like the last
page, if you have ways that you find might help you for a little
while, email us so we can make our list even longer and help even
more people that are struggling.
SELF HARM AND SELF INJURY RECOVERY TREATMENT
SELF HARM ADDICTION & SELF INJURY ADDICTION TRIGGERS
What is a trigger?
It is something that
brings to mind and heart something negative which then brings forth
the concept of self harm.
Find your triggers and
avoid them.
Is there something that
typically happens BEFORE you have the desire to harm yourself?
You might even have
several triggers.
Become familiar with
ALL of them so that you can avoid them and/or be able to better deal
with them.
If listening to certain
songs triggers you, don't listen to them. If specific kinds of
situations happen that trigger you, avoid those kind of movies or TV
shows. (Such as rape scenes might be a trigger a rape victim or
survivor, so avoid those shows or movies that talk about rape.)
Being around a certain
person or crowd might trigger you.
Try to avoid that
person or crowd.
It is really a no
brainer.
BUT ... You Do have to
CHOOSE to do so.
In short ... Take
control of your triggers.
Find the source WHY you
want to harm yourself. Attack the root of the problem.
You CAN find
replacements all day long and keep yourself from harming, but if you
don't attack the reason of WHY you even have the desire to self harm
in the first place, you are merely placing a band-aid on a broken
soul.
For those that
KNOW it wrong, simply don't care, and decide to allow the
self harm to continue anyway ...
(For
those that are attempting to heal ... This does not apply to
you.)
|
It's your choice what happens. It's your choice if you are
going to continue to allow it or not. But, because God
knows our heart ... And He KNOWS when we know better but still
chose to hurt ourselves ...
SELF HARM AND SELF INJURY RECOVERY TRUTH
SELF HARM ADDICTION & SELF INJURY ADDICTION PEACE
Imagine with me for a second ...
We have driven for a little while on a long windy road. The road
has come to a dead end. We have to choice to go right or
left. We can't go both. We can drive straight ahead so we
don't have to "chose," but we would just smash into that
huge tree in front of us. It's not possible.
Right or left.
We have the choice. We can chose the path that heads to healing.
The state of freedom. God's plan for our life.
Or we can chose to go in the opposite direction and allow it to
continue.
Why would you chose to live a life that you feel encaged every
single day? Why would you chose to do something that you
know makes you want to scream out in shame and hurt
afterward? Why would you allow something so wrong to happen
(and you KNOW it being wrong) continue to seep into and
stain every part of your life, and instead of trying to
clean it (when you have the things to remove the stain) you
cry yourself to sleep wishing it would disappear on its
own?
It's not going to disappear on its own.
Knowing what is wrong and purposely continuing has you living in
sin.
Sin separates you from God and His PROMISE of eternal life (life
in Heaven rather than hell) ... Until you chose to repent and
turn to Jesus. You can't have it both ways.
|
Even if we have
continued to do it before, that is in the past.
|
2 Peter 3:9
The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men
count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not
willing that any should perish, but that all should come to
repentance.
|
Start new.
SELF HARM AND SELF INJURY RECOVERY HELP
OVERCOME SELF HARM ADDICTION & SELF INJURY ADDICTION
Tell God you are sorry, truly mean it, and God will help you
overcome this addiction.
He CAN and has forgiven
you.
We need to learn to
forgive ourselves, truly be sorry for what we do, and move on so we
can heal and live in God's blessings.
Some people try to listen, to the
bottom of a bottle
Some people try to listen, to a needle in their arm
Some people try to listen, to the money in their pocket
Some people try to listen, to another's arms
{Chorus}
You and I are not that different
We got a void and we're just trying to fill it up
With something that will give just a little peace
All we want is a hand to reach to
Open arms that say I love you
We'd give anything to hear
The voice of a Savior
Some people try to find it with blind ambition
Some people try to find it where no one else has gone
Some people try to find it in the crowns of victory
Some people get defeated and lose the strength to carry on
{Chorus}
Some people try to find it in the shadow of a steeple
Some people try to find it in the back row pew
Some people try to find it in the arms of Jesus
That's where I found it, how about you?
{Chorus}
