If You Really Knew Me... -
December 31st 2011, 02:42 AM
I saw a thread like this a while back and even posted on it, I loved the idea but it's gotten lost to who knows where. So I want to start one up again and the reason why is I was on youtube and came across a bunch of these type of videos. So I made one too. Instead of writing down everything I'm linking to my video but you can write it all down or link to a video if you want to.

I have a horrible speaking voice, so I'm gonna write mine out.
If you really knew me, you'd know that I value being interesting over anything else. If you really knew me, you'd know I treat my parents like my best friends and that it isn't really a good thing. If you really knew me, you'd understand that I have little to no reasoning behind most of the things I do. "Once a little boy sent me a charming card with a little drawing on it. I loved it. I sent him a card and I drew a picture of a Wild Thing on it. I wrote, “Dear Jim: I loved your card.” Then I got a letter back from his mother and she said, “Jim loved your card so much he ate it.” That to me was one of the highest compliments I’ve ever received. He didn’t care that it was an original Maurice Sendak drawing or anything. He saw it, he loved it, he ate it." |

I don't have a camera unfortunately and I probably wouldn't feel comfortable doing that so I'll write mine out.
If you really knew me, you'd know that I have trust issues. You'd know that they stem off of years of abuse and mistreatment from my parents and from some other people along the way. You'd know that I was molested by my best friend's brother when I was just 10 years old. You'd also know that he raped me just a week later. If you really knew me you'd know that I was diagnosed with clinical depression and post traumatic stress disorder in July 2009 after my abusive boyfriend told my dad that I was self-harming and that I got raped. If you really knew me, you'd know that that boyfriend raped me himself and he never used a condom. You'd know that I had a miscarriage and I honor my angel everyday. You'd know that I suffer from binge eating disorder. You'd also know that I'm 8 weeks self-harm free today. That I'm finding hope within making friends and helping others here on TeenHelp. You'd know that I'm a strong believer in hope and that I'm a strong believer in making things positive. You'd know that I'm genuinely a caring person and I don't want anyone to be alone while they go through things; like I was. You'd know that this is just the jist of what's gone on with me and there's so much more to this story.

Yeah,
I'm gonna write mine out. If you really knew me you'd know: I'm insecure, I can't take a compliment, I'm shy unless I know you, I love my hats, softball and music are really the only things I care about, I have a few people I actually talk to, I have more friends online than in life, I really love quotes, I love to read, you'd know that I have trust issues, I write or read all the time, I can't go a day without music.. If you really knew me you'd know I'm not as happy as I seem. |

If you really knew me, you would know that I've made some terrible choices in my life and that I continue to make them. If you really knew me, you would know that I have been emotionally abused by my parents since I was 13. If you really knew me, you would know that I can't remember anything specific before that time -- the memories are all vague. If you really knew me, you would know that I've always had issues with lying. If you really knew me, you would know that my self-confidence is completely fake and I find myself absolutely repulsing. If you really knew me, you would know that I feel unworthy of love and believe the people that are nice to me only stick around out of pity. If you really knew me, you would know that the person I am in public is completely different from the person I really am because I'm afraid of getting hurt. If you really knew me, you would know that I guard my emotions constantly and you would know how to tell when the smiles were fake. If you really knew me, you would know that I truly believe that I deserve to die, but that I would never have the courage to try to kill myself. If you really knew me, you would know that I don't have any love in my heart for 90% of my family. If you really knew me, you would know that I'm a disgusting whore who had her first boyfriend at 14 -- he was 19; you would also know that I did way more with him than any 14 year old ever should have. If you really knew me, you would know that I've been in 12 relationships and many more flings with people whose names I can't remember in the past 4 years. If you really knew me, you would know that I had a short time where I believed I was a lesbian. If you really knew me, you would know that I've been in love with the same guy for 2 years and I would do anything to make him happy. If you really knew me, you would know that I can't diet because it always turns unhealthy. If you really knew me, you would know that I would do just about anything for the people that I consider my support system. If you really knew me, you would know that there is some small part of me that still has hope . . that there is some small part of me that is confident that I will get better. If you really knew me, you would know that I'm still trying to get stronger day after day.

If you really knew me, you would know that even though you do.. I don't trust you. I don't trust anyone.
If you really knew me... you would know that inside I don't like myself at all. I hate myself. But, I truly don't want to be like that anymore. If you really knew me... you would know that I used to cut myself. Excessively. It was the only escape that I had. If you really knew me... you would know that I tried to kill myself, repeatedly. And, on October 16th, 2011... I almost died. But, got a second chance. If you really knew me... you would know that now, I'm scared to die. I don't wanna even come close to it ever again. If you really knew me... you would know that I sincerely HATE cops. They don't do anything. At all. -___- (Some are ok.) If you really knew me.. you would know that I've been through so much that I matured when I should've been playing with barbies and not having a care in the world. If you really knew me... you would know that I've been bullied most of my 14 years. Whether it have been by my parents or by my peers. If you really knew me... you would know that I STRONGLY dislike my father. And, you would know and understand what he's put me through. If you really knew me.. you would know that I was in a physical, emotional, and sexually abusive relationship about a few months ago. And, I didn't even see it. If you really knew me.. you would know that I'm attacted to both genders and I don't give a crap if you don't like it. If you really knew me... you would know I have strong beliefs. And, I stand by them. If you really knew me... you would know that I try to help the world. But, I can't help myself. If you really knew me... you would know that I've been hurt by so many people. That I now have noone. If you really knew me... you would know that I have a eating disorder, and I'm bullimic. But, I'm getting better. Even though, I still don't like my weight. If you really knew me.. you would know that poetry is my life. And, it's the only thing I have. People can call me fat, ugly, and now stupid. But, they can't take away my poetry. If you really knew me... you would know that I'm afraid of what others think. So, I put myself down to them.. before they can. If you really knew me... you would know that I'm scared to be alone. If you really knew me... you would know that I'm a wonderful person. But, I've been through alot. And, noone can handle that... -EVERYTHING happens for a reason. There's nothing you can do to change it. It's just your fate. Whether it be stupid or not... It's your life. The way you handle it is the only control you have...

If you really knew me you would know:
It's hard for me to trust adults because of how they've treated me They aren't the only ones who've hurt me That the damage they've done has left scars, even if it doesn't always hurt That I now consider myself recovered from everything That it's still a struggle sometimes I still fear failing and criticism in all it's forms only because it hurts so much to lose something you've wanted for so long or to be told how bad someone else thinks you are at something you thought you were good at I don't know what my talents are although I'm sure I must have at least one As much as I love helping people, I desperately want someone to return the favor, someone who I can talk to for hours just to get it all out |

If you really knew me you would know that I am a victim of sexual, emotional, physical, and verbal abuse. My brother and stepbrother molested me when I was 7 and continued until I was 11. My mom degrades me for my depression and other various issues pertaining to my mental health. My stepdad was a very angry and intolerant man, and would often curse at me, tell me to shut up, insult me, and one time threatened to "knock the shit out of me" if I didn't pull weeds faster.
If you really knew me you'd know that I'm a cutter - have been since October 24, 2008. The longest I've ever gone without is 3 months. I've cut everywhere from the shoulders down. If you really knew me you'd know that I treated one of the greatest people I'd ever had the fortune to meet like a worthless piece of shit for so long and for no reason and I feel inexplicably horrible about it. If you really knew me, you'd know that I've tried to kill myself twice because half of my theatre class was thoroughly repulsed of my very presence. If you really knew me you'd know that I'm 5 1/2 feet tall and double digits and feel grossly obese. If you really knew me you'd know that I haven't spoken to my father in two weeks because he is a petty douchebag who doesn't know how to save the insults for someone who can handle them. Two weeks isn't much but if you really knew me you'd know that I'm waiting for HIM to make the first move. If you really knew me you'd know that if I ever cross paths with the bastards who raped me I will kill them, after I mangle their bodies beyond recognition. If you really knew me you'd know that I'm tired. Of life, of school, of this world, of this country, of this house. of family, of 'friends', of society, of me. If you really knew me you'd know that I see a heifer when I look in the mirror. If you really knew me you'd know that I'm jealous of everyone who is rich, pretty, smart... because I shop for all my clothes at Goodwill and Walmart and I have to listen to everyone say how they just spent their $800 birthday money on pure mall clothes, and how they got 108 on their honors trig test. I have to see the boy I adore throw himself at her because she has boobs and weighs three fucking pounds. If you really knew me you'd be surprised how much no one else knows. |

If you really knew me..
You'd know that I lie to the one person I'm am closest to, and am afraid will leave. You'd know that I can't make a simple phone call because I have anxiety. You'd know that I go to the bathroom at least two times before I go to bed, go somewhere, etc (used to be over ten times) You'd know that I have to make my gas cap vertically straight, or I get anxiety real bad and think my gas cap fell off. Even though I KNOW I put it on. You'd know that I take everything personally. And when I say everything, I'm not joking. You'd know that I hate everything about me. You'd know that I love control. You'd know that I want attention and support, but I usually don't want to get better. You'd know that I'm a hypocrit. You'd know that fighting/conflict/tension is a huge trigger. You'd know that everything I do is for some sort of gain or give. ![]() I was looking for a breath of life For a little touch of heavenly light But all the choirs in my head say, no oh oh |

If you really knew me, you'd know almost everything I said was a joke.
If you really knew me, you'd know how deep of a passion for learning I truly have. If you really knew me, you'd know my secrets I've held on that I haven't told anyone. If you really knew me, my true desire is to be accepted. If you really knew me, you'd have second thoughts about me. If you really knew me, you'd know how much curiosity I had. If you really knew me, you'd know I am not at peace with myself. If you really knew me, well then you wouldn't be needing to read this. xD Knowledge is power, guard it well.

If you really knew me, you'd know that I have an anxiety disorder.
You'd know that my dad doesn't believe in "psychotherapy bullshit" and my mother is too self-absorbed to care, so I don't see a counselor like my doctor said I should. You'd know that I find it extremely difficult to trust people because the last person I fully trusted betrayed me. You'd know that I get afraid because I wouldn't be able to easily fight off my boyfriend, even though he would never try to hurt me. You'd know that I lie to everyone about my health, because they'll think I'm being over-dramatic. You'd know that I haven't had a pain-free minute in five years, thanks to my scoliosis. You'd know that I lost my cousin, who was more like my sister, two years ago and I'm still not okay. You'd know that I have no idea how to talk about the bad things in my life because I feel like I'm being too whiny and I don't like letting myself be that vulnerable. |

If you really knew me you would know that :
I cannot trust many people, I struggle every day with self confidence and self esteem issues, that I still watch kids programes, sleep with a blanket and soft toy, I find opening up to people hard, I have many secrets. I am scared of a-lot of things including people choking, the darkness on the stairs and large crowds and big bangs, that I have big interest in the paranormal, That I have GAD, that my dad treats me differently than my sisters, that I doubt myself with everything that I do, that I don't like to talk alot and talking in a large group frightens me, that I am scared to become like my dad, that I buy my dad alcohol to keep him happy, that everyday I fight the urges to hurt myself and that usually and nearly every day I end up hurting myself, I very rarely show my true emotions and act fine, That I had ADHD, Asperges syndrome, Dyspraxia and math dyslexia. That I can never sleep. That the people that understand me the most are the people on this site, that my favourtie colours are blue, black, and yellow, That I am not a girly girl at all, And that I wish to be perfect and want to be a paranormal investigator and go on a ghost hunt, That if it was not for the children at work I may not be still alive at the moment. That I tend to keep things from my family in order to keep my family together. You'd also know that from the ages of about 12-16 I was sexually abused by the postman and that I have been emotionally and pyhiscally abused. Sexually harrased, Mentally and physcially bullied and that aged 15 I was pyhsically assulted and that aged 16 the same person who assulted me threatend to kill me. ![]() the girl who always seemed unbreakble finally BROKE the girl who seemed strong CRUMBLED the girl who always laughed CRIED the girl who never stopped trying finally GAVE UP she let her fake smile fade and as she did a tear rolled down her cheek and she whispered ' i can't do this anymore' The moment Rob spammed in chat : 10:49 [Rob] Omgggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggg gg it's Christmas! |

If you really knew me you'd know:
I automatically assume your life is better than mine. I have at some point thought that I offended you. I say sorry almost constantly. I am constantly feeling guilty, and I don't always know why. I'm the quiet girl, because if I start talking about myself, you'll hear bad things. I will look at you, or anyone else, and think of how much better you are than me. I read all the time, and write, but never anything meaningful. I will never meet your gaze. |

If you really knew me, you'd know I hate myself.
You'd know that I can't look in the mirror without being disgusted. You'd know that I used to physically harm myself, and that I still want to. You'd know that I cry myself to sleep most nights. You'd know that I hate being cliché, but that sometimes it's the only way I can get through to people - because they think I'm joking. You'd know that I wish I wasn't quite so clever. You'd know that I wish I was cleverer. You'd know that I can't ever actually be satisfied with myself. You'd know how lonely I feel. You'd know the real me, and you'd probably hate it. And that's why you don't know me. LiveHelpOperator|TalentCommittee RIP Grandad xxx |

If you really knew me:
You'd know that I have the lowest self esteem in the world. You'd know that I look at myself in the mirror everyday only to see something I wish I wasn't You'd know my deepest fear is not succeeding in university and resorting to a service - sector job You'd know I hate myself for the many stupid decisions I've made, always wondering 'what could have been' You'd know how insecure I am about my height You'd know I really want to make friends with everyone only to be hindered by my mediocre social skills You'd know how insecure I get whenever I hear criticism about me You'd know that I sometimes try to talk in a deeper voice in fear that my high - pitched voice might be ridiculed You'd know I really want to believe in the 'destiny' and 'everything happens for a reason' mottos probably because its the only thing that gives my sad life hope Carpe Diem: Seize the Day/Moment.

If you really knew me, you would understand that what I want more than anything is to be appreciated. You'd know that I have the potential to shine if you didn't overlook me so much. You'd know that I beat myself up over the silliest things. You'd know that all I want is a chance to be recognized.

I left you a comment on the video. Well done for that, you're a strong person. <3 I'm gonna' write mine out too.
If you really knew me you'd know that I've been picked on for most of my life. If you really knew me you'd know that I've never really been good at talking to people which has meant I don't have too many friends. If you really knew me you'd know that I'm not a confident person. If you really knew me you'd know that I don't like the way I look or how I am sometimes. If you really knew me you'd know that I could spend hours just thinking about how much I wish I was like someone else. If you really knew me you'd know that words hurt more than a lot of other things. If you really knew me you'd know that even though my life looks perfect, inside my head things really aren't. If you really knew me you'd know that when I'm quiet, I'm not ignoring you, I just don't have the confidence to speak, even if the day before I did. If you really knew me you'd know that I think too much for my own good. If you really knew me you'd know that I'm afraid of losing people, even if I push them away sometimes. If you really knew me you'd know that I care more about how other people feel than how I feel. If you really knew me you'd know that my life revolves more around other people than myself. If you really knew me you'd know that there's a lot I can do, and have the ability to do, that I'm too afraid to try. If you really knew me you'd know that I'm not that smart at all. If you really knew me you'd know that under my bracelets there are scars and cuts. If you really knew me you'd know that I'm lonely. If you really knew me you'd know that I look up to people a lot of other people don't - because they make a difference, not just look good. If you really knew me you'd know that I'm sad. A lot. If you really knew me you'd know that even though I'm quiet, sometimes I just want to scream at the world for not listening, and not changing, even though so many people wish it would. If you really knew me you'd know that even though I'm quiet, sometimes I want to shout at people because their actions genuinely hurt. ![]() Would you let me see beneath your beautiful Would you let me see beneath your perfect Take it off now girl, take it off now girl I wanna see inside. ღ |

If you really knew me you'd know that:
- I've lived almost all of my life dissociated & it's really disturbing to feel so out of control about my past. - The reason I'm so shy is because I have social anxiety disorder and I'm afraid that no one will ever accept me. - I've been suicidal. Twice. - I want to move on to university as quickly as possible so to escape my house. - The first time I felt fat was when I was in grade 4. - I'm anorexic and I want nothing to do with recovery; I'm being forced and I hate it. - I'm a perfectionist to the point where anything less than 100% feels like a failure. - I've been verbally and physically bullied. - Being happy scares me because I know it won't last and I dread falling back into depression Sometimes tears say all there is to say. Sometimes your first scars don't ever fade away. Tried to break my heart, well it's broke. Tried to hang me high, well I'm choked. Wanted rain on me, well I'm soaked. Soaked to the skin. It's the end where I begin.

Wow, these posts are very touching to me and I think it's really brave for everybody to expose that "hidden" side of their identity. Just wanted to thank you for giving me the honor to read it

If You Really Knew Me:
You'd know that even though I look like a kid that has everything, not a day goes by that I don't think I don't deserve it. Any of it. You'd know that I still don't know how to feel, how I feel, or how to express how I feel about my Mom and Brother's deaths. You'd know that about a week ago I was an insensitive childish asshole to my Mom's brother when he chastised me and said my Mom would expect better from me. That I told him not to "play the Mom card" and to "leave my Mother out of it. You'd know that I wanted to die when he cried while he told me that he was the one that had to go to the morgue to identify HIS big sister and HIS nephew because my Dad had to be hospitalized and couldn't go. That he promised her he'd help raise me and help me grow up to be the man she dreamed I would be. You'd know that I love my Dad more than life itself, and I just hate myself when i do stupid shit and let him down or disappoint him. You'd know that the popular, smart, athlete is really a soft crybaby. That he's crying while he types this. You'd know that even though he might audit what I write here, I'm trying to get the guts to tell him that I've smoked weed three times. You'd know that I asked my Dad to adopt my best friend because I want him to be my brother for real. You'd know that I'm embarrased and ashamed because I got used by a girl for a game while I was playing the "big man." You'd know that I have a crush on a girl so deep it hurts. You'd know I could watch Penguins of Madagascar or Phineas & Ferb all day You'd know I got Tickle me Elmo pajamas for xmas, and I wear em with my Spongebob slippers. You'd know I'm in no hurry to 'grow up' You'd know how much I appreciate a place like this, with people like you, where I can talk about stuff like this. 15 Straight - Loving Life - Love meeting new peeps - Want to help if I can ![]() Girl: "My doctor says I can't have sex for a while."

If you really knew me:
-you'd know that I am not arrogant, just a bit shy. -you'd be able to decipher my fake smile. -you'd know that I can be absurdly kiddish at times, unintentionally. -you'd know that I hate it when people are upset with me and I apologize even when I am not wrong, but I value those people. -you'd know that I will keep loving Robert Pattinson even though people say he is gay. :P (which he isn't by the way.) -you'd know that I am a very emotional person, not a drama queen. |

If you really knew me - you'd know I'm not a horrible person, just a lost one.
I'm sorry - no, I'm not sorry, I'm intensely and deeply apologetic and repentant for the things I've done. You'd know I'm contemplating suicide this very moment and will do anything to act on it. You'd know I just want a hug, for someone to hold me, tell me they're there for me, and that everything will be all right... and I can never get it no matter where I look... |

If you really knew me, you'd know I don't give a damn what people say.
If you really knew me, you'd know how scarred I am by the past. If you really knew me, you'd know how much you're hurting me. If you really knew me, you'd know how strong my resolve is. ...If you really knew me, you'd know that every day I lean on him for strength because I can't muster enough on my own to face your abuse and the scars of my own past. I hate leaning on him so much because it makes him worry about me, and it makes me feel like I'm weak and not good enough. You'd know I confide in him every day, but sometimes it makes me feel worse because I feel like it's a big pity party that's only going to bring him down. Sometimes I even get scared he'll get tired of me. You'd know that it's all thanks to all those horrible things that happened back then, and your daily verbal abuse. Though you may sleep through half the day, I know I'm in your heart even as you snore away. I love my big sleepy bear.![]() No great artist ever sees things as they really are.

If you really knew me, you'd know me better than I know myself, because if you really knew me, you'd know all the secret feelings I'm hiding from me.
If you really knew me, you'd know that I can't focus on homework anymore because I just don't care anymore, but that I used to actually like learning and I was smart. If you really knew me, you'd know that I don't care so much about being a triplet, because it's not a big deal to me, because it doesn't always feel like I have siblings anyway--just a crowded, angry house. If you really knew me, you'd know that I'm scared to have a family one day because of my family now. If you really knew me, you'd know that I'm afraid to ever have money issues, ever. If you really knew me, you'd know that I'm afraid of a lot of things, even though I really wish I weren't. If you really knew me, you'd know that I used to be really depressed and wanted to kill myself, but that I didn't think I deserved to feel that way. If you really knew me, you'd know that my "sassiness" is the only way I know how to make a joke about something I'm not allowed to say. If you really knew me, you'd know that my stomach is tying itself in knots all day, that my pulse is racing and thudding in my ears, and that I'm afraid I'm going to have some terrible medical thing happen and all of the stress will catch up to me. If you really knew me, you'd know that I'm still about to fall apart, that I'm doing all I can to just hide it all and try to feel happy, but that one of these day's I'm just going to explode

If you really knew me you'd know how big of a dork I really am.
If you really knew me you'd know how much I really do love being in class learning new things. If you really knew me you'd know I'm not as confident as I lead you to believe. If you really knew me you'd know half the time I'm smiling I'm doing it in hopes of making myself feel happy. If you really knew me you'd know I am not good at taking my own advice. If you really knew me you'd know just how bad it really was. If you really knew me you'd know not a day goes by my past doesn't come back to haunt me. If you really knew me you'd know I have learning disabilities that cause me trouble with school, but I'm too proud to ask for help. If you really knew me you'd know that when I'm singing I feel like all the troubles in the world melt away. If you really knew me you'd know I want nothing more than to have people like me. If you really knew me you'd know I've never told anyone half of this stuff. We were made to be courageous. Everybody falls sometimes Gotta find the strength to rise From the ashes and make a new beginning Anyone can feel the ache You think it’s more than you can take But you're stronger, stronger than you know Don’t you give up now The sun will soon be shining You gotta face the clouds To find the silver lining |

If you really knew me, you'd know that when I say, "I'm tired," I mean that I'm tired of trying everyday, that when I want to go sleep, I want to never wake up.

If you really knew me, you'd know I haven't eaten properly in weeks.
If you really knew me, you'd know that it possitively kills me that my own mother won't speak to me. If you really knew me, you'd know that I fight the urge to cut myself every single night. If you really knew me, you'd know I'm falling apart a little more every day. If you really knew me, you'd know that I'm never going to forget what he did to me. If you really knew me, you'd know that the first time I tried to kill myself, I was eight years old. If you really knew me, you'd know that I'm terrified to have sex with her, because she's so perfect, and I'm so not... “I cannot prevent anyone from getting angry, or mad, or frustrated. I can only hope that they’ll turn that anger and frustration and madness into something positive, so that two, three, four, five hundred will step forward, so the gay doctors will come out, the gay lawyers, the gay judges, gay bankers, gay architects … I hope that every professional gay will say ‘enough’, come forward and tell everybody, wear a sign, let the world know. Maybe that will help.” Harvey Milk, 1978

If you really knew me, you'd know...
Conflict makes me extremely uncomfortable, but I have this constant urge to tell people off. I trust people easily, but I will doubt everything they say in the process. I have extremely low self-confidence. I get really nervous when speaking in front of a crowd, or any number of people if I don't know them well. I'm afraid that my writing will never be good enough. I'm afraid that I'll never be skinny. I really dislike feet. I'm more sensitive than I let on. I'd love to have a guy to just cuddle with. And being in a relationship scares me. |

If you really knew me:
You'd realise that most of what you think you know isn't true. You'd know that I barely trust anyone. You'd know that I'm gay. You'd know that I have an eating disorder. You'd know that I am probably scared that you hate me. You'd know I have problems with anxiety. You'd know that when I'm smiling, I probably don't mean it. |
