Re: How are you beating Self Harm? - December 24th 2014, 08:01 PM

I gave my tools to my therapist instead.


If clarity's in death, then why won't this die?
Years of tearing down our banners, you and I
Living for the thrill of hitting you where it hurts
Give me back my girlhood, it was mine first

Listening to afraid by the neighbourhood on loop, because its like the story of my life, and watching rebel without a cause over and over for the same reason. I feel like I have something in common with all 3 of them, without the coolness aspect of Jim or Judy:P

I listen to music, I snap an elastic band against my wrist, I draw (more like doodles lol) and I write. I write about anything and everything, it gets everything that has built out inside of me out, without me bothering my family.
