    It is absolutely right to aks people for help and I'm glad you're reaching out for help! I am sorry you feel scared to look at your phone, I cna understand why you do as being vulnerable can be scary. But, nothing bad will happen if you check your message and if you don't like what it say there are people who you will be able to go to.

    Totally agree with what @SirArchibald has said! Just wondering if you managed to look at your phone since, Ellie? It's more than okay if not, but we are here to support you in doing so if you feel up to it. Reaching out for support is literally the most courageous and awesome thing you can do, so try to feel proud of yourself for it, I know I am <3
