hi! I'm raven, i am demi-boy. demi boy is where someone is feels their gender identity partially identifies with a masculine identity but is not wholly male.

i like sharks, art, stickers, shiny things, mlp, music, mouthwashing (the game), Minecraft, animal crossing, Kandi, fluffy things, animals and my bed!


i get bullied a lot, which has affected my mental health in the past year or so. i haven't been feeling the best lately and i'm with the mental health program called 'cahms'. i struggle with self harm and my suicidal thoughts, i only have one friend and me and her don't talk much anyway. i wanted to come on here and speak how i feel and hopefully meet some kind people who i can relate to without being judged, i am normally very positive and silly but the past few days its been hard for me to stay happy.

when i'm not feeling the best i tend to get more aggressive and rude. i also randomly get suicide or self harm urges and i just cant deal with them most of the time.

anyways, thank you for reading, have a great day! :D

    I love whale sharks and zebra sharks =)
    I'm also a big fan of stingrays and manta rays - although they are technically not sharks i still think they're pretty cool
