Hey guys , I'm sorry for constantly going away for ages and then coming back , but thanks so much to the few of you that keep coming back <3. So I think it's safe to say that these past three months have been pretty rough for me , so much has happened in my personal life , I've gone through a complete change of heart through everything. Hopefully I'll be talking in more detail about what happened but that's not what I wanted to do today !
So one of my struggles has been my mental health. I have struggled quite a bit against my own mind and even attempted to seriously harm myself , but like I said I'm not going to get into the nitty gritty details.
What I wanted to do with this post is reach out to anyone who has/is/thinking about hurting themselves.
Don't you dare ! I know me saying that doesn't seem much , but having gotten through such a dark time , I will tell you straight up , you will always regret it.
I wont tell you to think of positive things or to focus on the people that love you because i know first hand that that doesn't always work. But I will tell you to turn to something , something you love.
How about this ? "Whenever you want to hurt yourself , Art yourself" ! Let me explain...
Cutting won't make it better , trust me , but if you're really at the point of looking at your body and wanting to do something to it , art it ! Write the lyrics to your favourite song all down your wrist , draw some cool patterns on your thighs , draw or write whatever you want , wherever you want to hurt yourself. It's creative , it's on your body , and there's no awkward encounters of trying to talk to people about how you feel.
I don't know if this will help any of you guys that are struggling , but it certainly helped me and if you're feeling down just know I'm always here for advice or just a listening ear 💙
That's All For Now ,
