In my early 20s, full time job, still can't drop the habit. I don't do it regularly. I can go 2-3 months without self harming, but I always seem to come back to it. I just get times where if I can, and there is reason to I will cut/burn for days/week. I suppose it's a bit like any other addiction; funny thing is I never saw it as an addiction. I just thought it was an odd habit, something to enable me to cope sometimes. But when I start cutting again, I realise immediately why I do it.

Just wanted to know if anyone is in/has been in a similar position to me. How did you stop? How old were you when you stopped?
