I stopped self harming but

I have been told about this by a councelor I once talked to. I have found these helpful. Go for a walk and use your senses. Observe each sense you have what do you hear? Birds singing?dogs barking? A person mowing their lawn? What do you smell? The grass after it's mowed,the smell of rain on soil? Something burning? What or how do you feel? The wind? The sunshine? Cold? Hot? What do you see? Your neighbors? Some kids playing? Dogs? Cats? Trees?birds? With each sense take some time in knowing your senses when going for a walk it's very calming and gives you a more positive and peaceful feeling that draws your attention away from your negative feelings. Also try doing crossword puzzles,jig saw puzzles or any brain game that will keep your mind occupied and get together with family and friends and hang out somewhere and take pictures. Pictures capture moments in your life that you can look back on in the future. I hope these things or you find what helps you.

Please don't harm yourself
