My story

I started cutting when I was 12. I was really angry and hurt, for a lot of different reasons. I started with a bobby pin. I told everyone they were cat scratches. People believed me, but only a few knew they weren't. I asked my best friend if she would cut with me, she said yeah. So, I popped a blade out of a hand held pencil sharpener while at school, and to make sure it was sharp enough I went into the bathroom to test it out. That week my friend and I cut ourselves with the pencil shapener blade and also broken pieces of glass from the road. The school soon found out, my parents were called, and I spent an hour crying to the school counselor. My parents didn't do anything, they thought it was just a phase. The next year, in sixth grade, people knew me as "that emo girl that cut herself in the school bathroom." Even the people that didn't know about me, could just tell by looking at me. I started cutting again. I didn't really have reasons too, I just did it to do it. The school found out again and I was sent to an alternative school for 90 days. And I was so scared while I was there, that I didn't cut. But when I got back to my regular school I was know as "the scary emo chick" that it just felt like I needed to cut, plus home life wasn't all that great.

Loneliness

"You can't sleep your life away Rachel."

Thats what my mom told me today when she got off work and found me dead asleep on my bed. Well you know what mom? I dont fucking care. I'll sleep my life away if I want. Dreams are better than reality anyway.

"I havent seen you in three days because you are always asleep or in your room."

Actually, its because I dont want to see you. All you talk about is lacrosse, AHS, and my future. Which are topics which are pretty pointless to me.

"Wanna play videogames with me? Or are you just going back to your cave?"

>.< Not even going to comment on that one.

I cant stand anyone here anymore. At first they were tolerable but now I jst cant do it. And that sucks.I'm so blunt and antisocial that I cant even be around my family for a few minutes before I want to jump off a bridge. I guess I'm just too different.

Too depressed, too scarred, too unhappy, too done.

Can you even use the term "too done"? Probably not. It souunds too bizarre. Just like me.

Giving up

I just don't know what to do anymore. My life is falling apart. No one cares about me and what I feel or care about. I care about people and all they do is tell me to stop and wht not. Think it's time to not care about anyone cos no one is thankful for it. I hte my life and I want it to end. 

I lay here in bed with the blades in my hand. Ready to slice open my arms and legs. No one asks how I'm going and stuff. Why should I to them? I treat people the way I want to be treated but no one treats me that way. 

just want my life to end. I can't live with this pain anymore. It's killing me. Don't think anyone will notice if I'm gone. Or care. Maybe it's time to try again. 

 

One cut, two cuts ,three cuts....10 ccuts blood and more blood. Hate myself more now

Everyday Seems Like a Year

Every day that passes without me self-injuring is like a year. For me, one of the reasons I cut is so I can live; so I don’t have to commit suicide. Shouldn’t I be congratulated? I got really upset and I wanted to cut so I went to hang out with my family. It was fine, we were all laughing and play fighting; until my father told me to “Stop talking.” So now I’m back in my room, typing this. I keep telling myself that one cut doesn’t count, that one cut is okay. I even made a deal that I could use some other form of self-harm this time next week, before therapy. What the hell is wrong with me? I feel just as miserable as before, except now I just don’t have fresh cuts on a daily basis.

I’m on medication because of yesterday; I have to take it twice a day. I tried to mash it and put it in icecream but that didn’t work. I’ll have to try orange juice tonight. Read more »

A New Perspective

I think I'm finally realizing why I cant get any work done ever or accomplish anything. And its because all the days are exactly the same, and I have lost track of time. I swear, if I didnt have to write the date on everything at school, I wouldnt even know what day it was.

There are two types of days; A days and B days.

On A days, it is the usual. First period STEM Chemistry, Study Hall, Geography, and then Lit & Comp II. When I get home from school I got to my room, fix myself a small snack since I skipped lunch, and go to bed. I wake up at 9 pm and start work. I only work on B day stuff on A days.

Then its B days. First period Alegbra I, Study Hall, Biology, and then Spanish 3. When I get home from school it is the exact same routine. Except I only work on A day stuff on B days.

This whole systematic cicle is repetitive and boring and I cant take it anymore.

We are receiving a bunch of final projects, and next week it is crammed high with tests. We havent even started finals yet and I already cant take it.

I dont know what I am going to do in the summer.

That Crosses The Line

Last night on another site someone went to my inbox and completely bashed me. He was shortly banned but that didn’t stop him from making several new accounts. He then put up a video that made fun of special needs people and that really crossed the line. I wish he would leave me alone.

I got up this morning and I was really nervous to go to the gyno. My mom drove me there (wow, I’m losing memory. I forgot that “drive” is “drove” in the past tense) Anyway, as soon as we got there they took me in because the patient before me cancelled. They took my height and weight and I was shaking. I also got my blood pressure taken. Thank god it came back normal, because I always seem to have it too high. I had a skirt on so it was easier for me to get ready for the doctor. I won’t go into details. But there were some things that were confirmed, at least in the way I saw it, anyway. I kept flinching and it hurt, so my mom thinks I was abused without being penetrated. I don’t even know if I want to eventually find (is find the right word?) the rest of my memories. On the way home, I just started crying.

I had a flashback. When I was around four, my dad asked me how old I thought you’d have to be to purchase alcohol. I replied, “21, daddy.” I knew stuff like this; I knew sexual type of things when I was a little kid. Things that I shouldn’t have known. Read more »

Don't know what I feel

Sometimes I just feel nothing. Empty, lonely, alone and just nothing. At times I just feel that I'm a body on this planet but I'm not really here. 

I feel that everyone just is living life and I'm just sitting watching and no one can see me or anything. 

Struggling at the moment about how my ex boyfriend treated me. We have not been together for like 10 months however I hid so much about what he did to me and now it's killing me. He has made it hard for me to like boys but think now I'm a little more ready. 

I don't know what's going on for me right now. Just feel lost within myself. 

 

Hope your all going well

Someone Cares!

Listen to me.

No artsy or depressing pictures.

No distracting fonts. No colors.

Just read this.

Somebody cares.

And it will get easier.

It may not seem like it, I know.

But I promise at LEAST one person cares.

You are so beautiful.

And you deserve so much more

than what you do to yourself.

Don’t hurt yourself, don’t beat yourself down,

don’t hold it in.

Just let it all out, and breathe.

Because the fact that you can breathe is pretty amazing!

Don’t give that up.   

 

 

This is for all of you that feel like giving up! Sometimes it's easy to forget the good things that we have... The fact that we are alive and breathing! Just know that I care, and I'm probably not the only one. :) Stay strong!

Parents views on self harm.

Everytime there is a mention of self harm, my Mum makes a joke or makes it clear that it disgusts her.
The very first time I dragged a piece of glass across my wrist, I freaked out. I went downstairs to clean it up and I'd just had a huge argument with my Mum and she asked me what was wrong. I broke down and started crying hysterically, showing her my wrist. She started crying and told me never to do that to myself ever again, that I was silly. 
Then nearly two summers ago, my Mum saw my new cuts. I'd been self harming for four years and she never even realised. She just asked me if I'd been cutting and I said yes, she told me not to do it again. That was it. No asking me why or telling me I needed to speak to someone or that I should probably go back to the doctors and go back on the anti depressants. None of that.I honestly felt like she didn't give a fuck. And now anytime she sees my scars, she makes the effort to tell me they're awful and that they look disgusting. Don't get me wrong, I don't go flashing them around, but I'm not afraid to have my thighs on show, let people fucking see my scars. I went through hell and back and if I have some scars on my legs to show it, I ain't gonna cover them up in the roaring sun in the summer. I don't give a shit what people think about me, especially people who don't know me, but one person whos judgement does matter to me is my Mum.  Read more »

Fix Me

Before, I could hide myself away in work or school. I was never home. Maybe for a few hours, but even then, I was busy with homework or assignments for the next day.  Now, things are different. I don't have the distractions, the things to keep me hidden away.

My family keeps trying to talk to me, to put themselves back in my life. But I don't know how to let them in. They don't even know me anymore. They don't know the things I've done, just trying to silence the screams in my head.  They don't know what I've become, how shattered I really am.

My Dad said something to me about "the things I love" and I told him "I don't know what I love anymore." He said that was shallow of me.  Well, it's true.

I don't even know what I'm feeling. But it hurts. And they can't understand it.

You don't have to fix me, if you can love the broken pieces.

But either way, I don't think you can :(

I understand some of how you feel.

When I was 16 I was abused by my friend's mother. It was a horrible feeling, because this was someone I trusted, and I told myself that she wouldn't really be doing anything wrong to me. But she WAS. and I was scared to tell anyone because I was so embarrassed.

I'm so sorry that you had to go...
