if your feet don’t allow you to get out of bed for a week, it’s okay
if the only thing you can do for a month is eat and sleep, it’s okay
if you can’t go to school regularly, it’s okay
you’re trying, and that’s all that matters. its going to progress into something better, believe me. just take care of yourself.
Ive been one year clean since last month. I’m proud to say I might have beaten my self harm. still working on the depression though
When you see someone’s self-harm scars please refrain from:
- pointing them out
- commenting on them
- blatantly eyeing them
- doing all the above in front of people
Because it can cause that person:
- severe anxiety
- severe depression
- feeling of being gross/unworthy/shame
- or, unfortunately, cause them to self-harm again because of all the above and halt their recovery process or hinder it
If you MUST say something:
- Don’t do it in public, speak with that person PRIVATELY
- Do it in a calm, comforting, understanding, and non-jugdgemental tone
- Try your best to start with, “If you don’t want to disclose your personal information I completely understand, but I am always here to talk if you need to.”
Please, and thank you!
