For a while I struggled with self-harm. I had been severely traumatized since I was 6(Almost being killed, abused, etc.). When I was ten, I had discovered self-harm and took a liking to it once I started, it helped me cope. But...I slowly got addicted too it. The more I cut, the less it helped, the deeper I went. Lately, my boyfriend has been telling me that he wants to be my safe place, he wants me to get better, he will be by my side the entire time. Which has pushed me to start getting better. I also struggled from an eating disorder. I've gotten a lot better with that too. I know I'm not fully better, and I'm still struggling, but my outpatient program can help be able to finish stabilizing me to some extent, and I can move onto regular therapy.

Something I learned; help is out there. You may not want it, nor see it, but it's there.
