Message: <blockquote data-quote="daisyduck" data-source="post: 1407014" data-attributes="member: 5016">You need to control this and not let it rule your life. Ideally a therapist would talk you through this and I'm not sure how it will work via written text on a forum. If you have a close friend who will help that would be good too.Wait until you feel fairly calm and ready to tackle this.Get yourself a cup of tea or coffee and sit down with the pricker in front of you. Just look at it for a while.Poke it, pick it up and keep saying to yourself .. this is just a tool.. it wasn't this that hurt me, it was the person who was using it.Positively reinforce by saying to yourself .. I am now the master , this simple tool is here to help me turn my life around. What happened in the past can't hurt me now... but I can be strong and make myself well.That is a very simplified version and you might need to do it a few times.. good luck .. and don't let the past rule your future xx</blockquote>
