I'm in the school band, so I decided to practice. I beat the shit out of that drum and it felt so good to let out all of that anger that I always let build up inside of me. 33hours SH free and counting<3 and I hope with every fiber of my mind, body and soul that I NEVER SH ever again. Stayin' strong. Going to tell my dad this weekend, I hope, and see if I can get a therapist.
Stay strong ladies and gents. I'm right here with you. We can do this together

Stay strong everyone! You can beat this. <3
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

Went shopping with dad and distracted myself with loud music. I've also spent time with friends and done some revision. Now I'm going to relax with a movie. :]
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!

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 wrote a paper and put away my laundry.
"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."

I told my mom just yesterday, and I'm glad I did now. She understood and is gonna get me help. Knowing that I will eventually get better, it makes the battle worth it.

I was really close to cutting because of what someone said to me, but I called my friend and we talked about it for a good hour or two she always makes me feel better when im feeling down or depressed.

Truthfully, I have wanted to cut about eight times in the last two weeks. But the last time I did it (about 3 months ago I think--February 22nd), I hid my scissors and cannot find them...So yeah. I've been talking to my friend a lot, and to my kind-of boyfriend and that helps. Sometimes, just throwing myself into my work helps, nine times out of ten.

What stops me from doing it is
seeing how bad my scars are, and how they wont heal.
I can't let that happen ever again. :/
So when I'm sad or mad... I just sleep. I sleep a lot. It seems to fix all of my problems. eh
But these scars are so bad and they just wont go away, I have such bad regret about doing it. The regret stops my from doing it.
Someday we will find what we are looking for. Or maybe we won't. Maybe we'll find something much greater than that..

I don't want to let my friend down. One of my best friends has also struggled with self harm so she was the first person I told because I knew she wouldn't freak out too much. I think about how worried she was about me when I confessed about cutting instead of just scratching and I don't want her to worry. And I got on TeenHelp.

I think it has been almost 2-4 months since I last self harmed. I feel so happy with myself for accomplishing it. There are days when I itch for it but ignore it by doing other things like tv, games.
