3 weeks clean from self harm!!!

Hey guys!! 

Just thought I’d come on here because I’ve finally gone more than 3 weeks without self harm, it’s a massive achievement for me and I’ve been struggling the past week but it shows how I don’t need that in my life anymore. Just wanted to emphasise to anyone who struggling with self harm that you’ll get through it eventually, each day you’ll grow stronger and stronger until you no longer need it 💗

sending love to you all x

    That's great! Thanks for sharing. Empathise it's not always easy to stop.  And really admire your ownership of pride, its great thing to be able to achieve things you want but to be able to recognize it for ourselves and feel good about it, really does help to move forward & carry on too ,to know what you want. 
    “And when they look at you, they won't see everything you've been through. They won't see the **** that turned to scars that began to fade with time. They won't see the heartbreaking things that shook up and changed your entire world. They won't know how many tears you cried or even what it was you were crying about. They won't see how strong you had to be because you had no other choice. What they will see though is how compassionate you are because you experienced pain. What they will see is how kind you are because you experienced how cruel the world is. What they will see is how good you are because you've seen how bad things or people can be. The difference between you and your experiences are who you choose to be, despite everything that could have turned you cold and unkind.You are the good the world needs and the best of us.” ~ Kirsten Corley
