I'm very proud of you for taking the first steps to recovery! I'm about 8 months clean so I can speak from experience that it's hard, but I really do believe in your ability to recover. Good luck Embry, you got this <3

Do you have any advice on how to quit?

i'm not sure how helpful any advice i have would be, but things like holding ice is very helpful to me if urges are extremely strong, since it kind of shocks the senses. if the urges aren't as strong, i try to get myself to hyperfocus on something like a movie i like or an activity/game that's fun for me. In general, I try to tell myself that relapsing will do more harm than good, because i'll immediately hate myself after and just reset all of the recovery i've gotten through. i also like to hang out with someone or talk to someone when i'm feeling those urges because my brain will kind of shut off when i'm with someone since i'm not going to leave a conversation to relapse. i'm not sure if any of that was helpful, but it's just some stuff that works for me :)

I've heard of the ice trick, maybe I'll try that. I was thinking about a rubber band or something similar. Honestly it's getting to a point where I'm doing it at school with a thumbtack or a pencil, and it's just so weird that I try to hide it but also I wear t-shirts.

rubber bands can also work!! that's more if you specifically need the pain element for sure. another common thing i've had friends of mine say works for them is using red pen and drawing on themselves, which is helpful if the visual is a part of it for you. i wish you the best of luck my friend <333
