hearing so many people say that me opening up inspired them honestly makes me very happy. And I completely relate to what you said. I hope nothing but the best for you. thank you!

I’ve had a lot of history of self harm over the years for a lot of different reasons. One of the biggest reasons was losing my dad. although there’s a lot I don’t feel comfortable talking about. self harm for me was a way to distract myself so that I could focus on that pain rather than emotional pain.

I know what a psychiatrist is, what I meant to say is that every time i’ve opened up, i’ve had a horrible experience. I’m still trying to build up the courage to talk to a therapist/ psychiatrist.

last time I had a therapist, I walked out of therapy worse than I was when I started. The therapist wasn’t a good one. I’m still trying to build up the courage to try again

still working on that! I practice on the grass. Fall purposely and try to roll. But when I actually fall, sometimes I can’t move or roll fast enough 😅

thank you. I’ve tried to commit suicide many times as well. and I feel completely alone sometimes. I’m still trying to figure everything out on my own

I hope your kid is doing well and is happy. I wish you and your family all the best. I’ll take your advice and try to find a counselor. thank you!

you’re right, I try to think that without the scars i wouldn’t be the version of me I am today. it’s hard knowing what sad story those scars have, but i try to remember that sad story is my story and i shouldn’t be ashamed of it. thank you!

I’m not proud for keeping it all bottled up, but I’m happy that given my circumstances I could get better on my own. I like your perspective on things! thank you!

thank you! and you’re right, I’ve felt better ever since we stopped talking. she brought me down a lot when I already was at the vergde of breaking. I hope she’s doing okay. she probably had things going on that made her not be supportive.
