I was busy, all the time; busy becoming myself. Because that's what you'd allowed me to become, Morrissey, myself. And I loved it. Knowing I was all right. That it was perfectly, absolutely, one million per cent positively all right, to not be normal. That it was better than that! That it was the best thing of all, the brilliance of not being normal.
My name is Gabrielle and I am twenty-eight years old. I began to self-injure at age fifteen -- so nearly thirteen years -- minus a two year period. This website was made to let self-injurers know that they are not alone and to help their friends and family learn more about self-injury and how it affects their loved one.
