MDJunction to me

Kelti"MDJ has been a saving grace for me. It has taken from me that feeling of being so alone in the management of my Bipolar Disorder. I am not alone any more!! The friends on MDJ that I have made have kept me going. I am more at peace with myself now, thanks to all the people here on MDJ. I thank  God for each one of them.  MDJunction  is the place of Hope." (Kelti)

Sometimes I find myself telling myself that if I do X, I can SI. I know that I need another one but there is nothing I want to do that would reward me. Has anyone else ever used it as a reward?

Edit: I am not at all supporting SI. I just find that it gives me such a high that I can't completely make myself want to stop, I want that high in another way that is more appropriate.

i find my self thinking the same thing. if i get this and this done that leaves me time for si, or ive also the reward aspect of it. I got everything done i earned it. Im still active at si and i find that i find me rewarding my self after a day of work where i get all the urgent issues dealt with and the shop is empty the "ritual" can go on. im not trying to trigger any one its just my opinoin on the reward
