I'm messaging a friend and hopefully I'll be going to the beach later.

I allowed myself to have a breakdown and now I'm tired so f all, I'm going to bed.
Do you ever get a little bit tired of life
Like you're not really happy but you don't wanna die
Like you're hanging by a thread but you gotta survive
'Cause you gotta survive

I'm thinking about my best friend, I've returned here so I'll be posting here a lot which will keep me occupied. Plus, I'm not thinking about it a lot.

Rewarding myself when I have small victories. Three months self harm free and I rewarded myself with a cat. 6 months self harm free who knows what I'll do. When I go a year I want to get myself a Mac. But even little victories like beating a really bad urge I'll go see a movie I've been really wanting to see or something like that.

Thanks, Christabel! I'm glad it's inspiring I just took a look and the amount of people who have joined is going up! That made me feel a bit better As of right now I'm messaging some friends and listening to music.

Packing to move.
From day one I talked about getting out
But not forgetting about
How all my worst fears are letting out
He said, "Why put a new address on the same old loneliness?"
When breathing just passes the time
Until we all just get old and die

I don't have any motivation to get out of bed and grab something sharp. I'm going to lay down with my kitties. <3

I made myself stay in bed even though the meanest thoughts were going through my mind, and eventually I slept.

Katia talked me through some stuff.
Watch, just because I gave her a shoutout she won't see this.

Do you wanna come with me? 'Cause if you do, then I should warn you - you're gonna see all sorts of things. Ghosts from the past. Aliens from the future. The day the Earth died in a ball of flame. It won't be quiet, it won't be safe, and it won't be calm. But I'll tell you what it will be: The trip of a lifetime!
Don't trust a perfect person and don't trust a song that's flawless.

I'm listening to music and staying away from the area where my tools are.

My counselor was really happy with me going 33 days, so I'm trying to motivate myself to go even longer! Maybe I'll get to two months!
Also trying to get out more until school starts.

Buying what i need for back to college.
"i don't care your intentions. I just want you to know my self-hatred never took me where I wanted to go. At the end of the day...I can pick at the pain but I can't cut it away."
