Commitment!

I keep reading about everyone who is making these commitments and you know, I really want to make one too! I feel like maybe if I post daily about how i'm doing, it will keep me motivated to keep doing better! I will start right now, but officially begin day 1 tomorrow of my week long commitment. If I can get through a week...I can get through longer! As of today, I have done alright...Only picked a few minor spots. I am home alone tonight making it harder, but I am going to do it! I have to promise to myself that there will be no more tonight! Wish me luck!! :)

It's so great seeing everyone commited to the cause of stopping. I feel quite bad for saying... but I've just never considered stopping. (I'm lip picking btw) Kudos to you guys.... keep fighting it. And don't listen to me, i'll come around to stopping at some point

day 88-day 92 Progress! I went to disneyland on my friends family trip and i did pretty darn well! I am happy to say that even though i picked...it was very little and very controlled! i had a tough time coming home though...i am heavily feeling the withdrawals and its hard for me to cope. i didn't do my exercises for breathing to calm me because obviously other people were around...i was strong though! i made it through...now the hard part which i believe i WILL conquer! hope to all! <3

day 100! holy crap 100 days! this is insane. well anyways...last night after i posted i ended up picking for a whole hour. I have learned from this relapse however that it is when i don't focus myself on the right things that this happens. I create my destiny. I will not fret i will only move on from this and gain something. that something is courage, forgiveness, and hope for the future. I am doing so well. Often times in life we complain about so much but if we really take a step back and look at the big picture, everything is all right

day 101...had a relapse. it was only a twenty minute session but i did a lot of damage..hopefully my skin will recover quickly. I just need to get back in control...sometimes i let things get out of hand and it really sucks. I have therapy tomorrow. you know...overall i have been doing really well and that is what ultimately matters!
