I can't think of a better reason to get a tattoo. Stay strong in your resolve!! With the tattoo and the cutting.

thanks I'll let you all know how it goes. I am not getting my tat until at least my 6month free of SI. and i recently had a relapse so the count up has began again

You might reconsider getting it earlier. Maybe seeing it would keep you from doing it... Just a thought. I've never experienced this, so I can't even guess how you are feeling...

Sending some positive energy your way, nonetheless!!

that is an idea that i am thinking about..i think there are advantages to both. on the one side waiting means it is something i can strive for. and on the other hand like you said maybe seeing it will keep me from doing it. and also that i am not stupid and i wouldnt want to aggravate the already irritated skin. I cant do it right now because i dont have the money and i havent found a tattoo artist yet. but it might be sooner then 6 months. like i said, i'll keep you updated i have been doing my research and the more i see the more i get excited about it. i have the words but i havent designed it yet.

Are these the words you are going to have in your tattoo "Il Faut Vivre, Ni Exister." That's a great quote!

yup
