I'm sick so I'm trying to focus on taking care of myself and getting better instead of hurting myself. I've been reading too.

Did not bring my blade to school. Keeping the will to survive my last 3 weeks of school going. Finding little things to appreciate and be joyful about like my wonderful cat. He is my good luck charm <3

Randomly dancing and exercise. Distracting myself with favorite tv shows. Drawing.

Well, not physical self-harm, but mental/emotional self-harm...

I have begun to write a lot more and watch more TV programs. It helps keep my mind and emotions stable and not get self-destructive/loathing/depreciation.

Re: How are you beating Self Harm? - May 26th 2016, 10:08 PM

I've been trying to do school stuff, I've been exercising, watching TV, spending time with my cats, anything I can to keep busy.


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

I've been dejunking one of our storage rooms which takes forever because it's full of hundreds of dance costumes from the past 17 years, old dolls/accessories, build a bear stuff and other toys.

I finished a class and I've been doing a lot of reading lately.
