Im 18, from England, im female, I struggle with self harm, depression, social anxiety and am diabetic.
Music is my life, the bands I listen to are what keeps me going, so turn up the volume, tune out the world and get lost in the lyrics.


Im currently trying to stop self harming and im willing to support anyone that needs it, talk to me.

Question

Anonymous asked: why do you cut? <3

:) Never thought I would get this question but its a fair one :)

I cut for so many reasons, it depends on what the situation is really, sometimes I cut for the control, when everything is falling apart around me its the one thing I have power over.

Other times its the release, if im stressed or worried or theres an overload of emotion cutting centres me, its like I can reset my emotions and my thoughts, im calm and I can think, sometimes it alows me to cry as well just with that release.

The majority of the time though its a form of self punishment I guess, Im never good enough, I have always done something wrong or got on the wrong side of someone.

Im my biggest critic, If I think ive done something or I havent done it well enough or look at myself and my life I see weakness and for that I cut, a reminder of weekness and of a mistake I should have never made and will never make again, an example would be the time I was stupid enough to trust a group of people and although some I can still call friends the majority hurt me so much, I made a mistake to trust and for that I wrot “FRIENDS” on my thigh and crossed threw the words, They have become scars now, and a perminent reminder never to trust completely again.

I hope whatever you were trying to understand by asking this question you finaly understand :)

Thanx and if there is anything else you want to know go for it :)
