#selfharmfree

Year eight is complete.

It has been hard for some time not to fall back on bad habits. I still get the urges relatively often. But I am glad to say that I still have managed to refrain.

Even if it temporarily numbs the senses, it only brings more pain after it has abated.

Here's to starting year 9 self-harm free.

I decided to write this because I have been self-harm free for a year and 8 months. It has been a struggle and battle to get here, but I keep fighting. I wanted to face my fears and start putting more of my work out there and being vulnerable. There are so many goals I'm trying to reach. #poems #emotional #battling #poetrycommunity #selflove #goals #fighter #selfharmfree #yearand8months #poetry https://www.instagram.com/p/CNm6ZVzMNDoRx5onBa5lpJbFl3OaYLr9GV-tso0/?igshid=idp7mrorho6c

6 years. 6 years later and these are the only scars I can, without a doubt, say came from one of the darkest times in my life. It's wild, thinking about the person I was back when those were made. I still struggle with the anger and the loss of control from the depression and anxiety, but I've found better ways to cope. Songs, stories, poetry, friends. I've gotten out of traditional education and I don't think I'll ever return. I've written my own deliverance from some of my darkest days in the form of poetry. I've learned to laugh through the days where I don't want to live, not because I'm hiding but because I've learned that sometimes you just need the joy being silly and laughing like that brings. I've spent some of my longest nights making my best friend cry because I hit her with feels for our characters like a metal chair to the face. I've experienced loss, hospitalization, being so physically ill that my mental health drove me the rest of the way into the ground and I've gotten up and kept going. I've done what I've needed to, to keep myself alive. To keep from slipping that far. I went from a very depressed high school student, struggling with my sexuality and, unknown to myself at the time, gender to a 24 year old who is finally starting to get their life together, who is happily queer and learning what it means to be their own person. It's been a long road, but I'm happy to be here. #SelfHarmFree https://www.instagram.com/p/B9tj6zJArEi/?igshid=17vdsoez2tsha

As it is world mental health day I figured it’s only right to commemorate the day by making a post. This post will probably get lost amongst all the other brave and honourable posts but that’s okay because it’s a post to commemorate this day but also myself. I am over 7 years self harm free, I’ve been taking my medication every day for over two years and I’ve stopped isolating myself and running away from love and support that I never felt deserving of. All those are great things and huge achievements but I still have so far to go, but that’s okay. I am a work in progress and that is okay. People don’t say it enough but any progress is important and deserves praise. I am not the same person I was 7 years ago and sometimes I’m glad and sometimes I’m not but I’m learning to like myself. Living with ocd, depression, anxiety and ptsd hasn’t been easy I feel like it’s even worse now I’m completely aware and diagnosed as there isn’t any running, hiding or denying what I have but there’s also no way I can change that so I’m just living it and surviving it - but I know one day I can conquer it. By conquer it I don’t mean be cured and completely mental health issue free but I mean I will have completely accepted it, learnt to live with it and become the absolute best version of myself. I’m looking forward to that - everything is a cycle. I’m not too interesting and I sometimes chat utter rubbish but if anyone ever needs to talk about anything, if even just to distract yourself and take your mind off things my inbox is always open and I’ll try to support wherever I can.

Big love x

Hi everyone,

Sorry I haven’t been posting a lot lately, I have having a rough time. I have terrible kidney stones, and they got so bad I had to be admitted to the hospital. I also had to have surgery on my right kidney. On top of that I have been having body dysmorphia thoughts again. Yes I am in the process of recovery, but here’s the thing: you never stop the process. Once you have these issues, they stay with you forever. Yes sometimes you can get those thoughts again and you can even fall down that dark road again. You can choose to let the illness drag you down farther down or you can choose to recover and move on with your life. It’s not an easy process, I mean here I am 6 years later and having body issues again. It’s ok. It takes time.

I’ve chosen recovery, and I hope you do too.

Remember I am always here for you no matter what. Stay strong my friend.

Mich selbst zu verletzen und auch Schmerzen ertragen, dem selbstverletzenden Verhalten zugute kommend, liegt inzwischen schon 4 Jahre zurück. Es ist für mich auch kein Weg mehr, mir Schaden zuzufügen. Inzwischen liegt mein Fokus darauf, mein Leben Stück für Stück mit mehr Schönheit, mit mehr von mir und mit mehr Liebe für mich selbst und andere zu verschönern. Es kam der Punkt, an dem ich es leid war, mich zu schneiden, zu verbrennen oder sonstiges um Kontrolle zu erlangen, wahre Kontrolle besteht für mich inzwischen aus der Disziplin, das zu erreichen, was ich möchte. Kontrolle ist für mich, meine Gedanken ruhig auch mal auszudenken aber ihnen, sobald sie negativ werden, keine Macht zu geben mich wieder auf den Boden zu reißen. Früher sah ich das anders, aber es ist wie mit dem Thema kiffen: ich habe vor 1 Monat und einer Woche aufgehört und ich zähle weiter. Und genau so ist es auch mit anderen für mich schädlichen Dingen. Es soll schön werden in diesem Leben und nur weil man einen turbulenten Start ins Leben hatte, heisst das nicht, dass man es genau so auch weiter führen muss oder sollte.

Keep fighting, it's worth it🤍

Today I completed my seventh year of being self-harm free. Naively in my first few post I thought I had lived through the worst in my life. It hit me upside the head with a wrecking ball. So much fucking shit has happened in those seven years.

But I am still alive. Still fighting for myself.

Usually I make some big thought out post for my #SelfHarmFree anniversary. This year, y'all get last night's hot chocolate selfie. Because honestly there's not much to say this year. I'm 7 years free. I've been in a fog lately but if I didn't have this day engraved in my memory, for the first time it might have just passed me by. Because this fog I'm in isn't negative, it's a little numb but it's not negative. Normally there's this underlying dread about today, creeps in about a week prior whether I know it or not. That didn't happen this year. For once I feel like I came into today with a pride I've never felt before, because those urges aren't there and that haven't been. https://www.instagram.com/p/CMZdPQHFm6b/?igshid=ljyl9ew73n79
