Feel free to merge these, since I now have an added response.

I was diagnosed with OCD. (And add self harming to that list coz that'd be one wouldn't it?)

Yes, I am often discriminated against my OCD, depression and self harming. People tell me that my life isn't bad enough to HAVE depression... Nor am I a "true" self harmer, also, they pick on me for having to wash my hands constantly, or that I pick things out by even numbers.

I haven't learnt much.. Maybe just smile through the pain, there ARE bright patches of light which can peek through. BUt other than that, they mostly give me bad thoughts and hurt me a lot...

My blog is open to all, those whom are easily triggered avoid, it's a story about a girl and her life and how far she has come over the years. If you read it, I hope it inspires you to keep fighting and to NEVER give up!

When you can no longer think of a reason to continue, you must think of a reason to start over.
