I know, it’s that time of the year again where
it’s another year going back to school,
dreading all the boring school work ahead,
only to be anticipating for the weekends yet again.

This will be another year for fresh new faces
to cross your path, for opportunities to come
your way, or who knows what’s in store for you?

Though, most importantly, this will also be the year
again where you get asked the same question
you...

This is gonna be a hard message for you to hear,
but I only express this to you because the sooner
that you understand this, the better off you’ll be.

Stop looking to other people to complete you.

I get it. I can relate to the feeling when you have
that one friend you can always count on, or you have
that one boyfriend/girlfriend who loves you unconditionally.

It’s awesome to have those people who will be
there for you,...

The past will always come back to haunt you
if you choose to focus on it and never let it go.

I understand how you’re feeling.

You’ve been wronged in the past too many times,
but here’s something to think about:

Do you honestly think those people who wronged you
are even thinking about you?

Chances are most likely not.

So why spend so much time thinking about that
person, those people who wronged...

Or in a fruitier phrase, the sh*t has hit the fan.

So, in June I lost my grandfather around the same time as I was re-homing my dog. My dog had bit another dog (she was just about to go on heat and had never previously shown any signs of aggression), but the lady I gave her to said she was clearly not an aggressive dog and after all was still a puppy.

I found out today through the new owner that the council decided to prosecute her, and as a result, she will be destroyed....

So, I have ordinary days now. Let me take you through today.

I got up, volunteered at the local food bank, went to visit some family, ate dinner then went to NA.

That's literally all I did today.

On ordinary days I still have some cravings. Sometimes I miss self harm. Sometimes I miss drugs. But missing these things doesn't mean I'm going to go back to doing them, and seeing how much I've grown without them makes it easier to get to the moment where I...

It's just after 9:00P.M. and I just finished reading my "most recent" blog post.

Oh boy I was in a terrible way back then.
For those who are interested, I did end up spending a holiday weekend in prison at one point in 2016. I was very unwell at the time and my offending had climaxed. I won't go into it here.

Then, around the middle of 2016, I decided it was time to move out of the area. The very day I decided this, there was an affordable unit in a...

So you feel like nobody cares about you.

Your “best friend” betrayed you, your boyfriend/girlfriend
dumped you, you get bullied nearly every day, and everything
else with your circumstances is all just a complete disaster
like the whole world crashing down on you.

And here you think if you sit here and write about it,
telling others how you think the world is this merciless,
cold, dark, unwelcoming place based on some bad experiences,...

You thought the person you had in your life
was everything you ever wanted.

You thought the person you had in your life
would never betray you and be there for you.

You thought the person you had in your life
loved you as much as you loved them,
that you were willing to do whatever it takes
to keep the relationship alive and going.

Then, you happen to find out they ghosted you.

They stopped talking to...
