Because I'm going to visit my family this weekend and I wouldn't want to risk them seeing.

relaxation breating practice. and if you're up for it, maybe you could take up some summer activities (sports, groups, classes), where you'd be likely to meet other people with similar interests. That way you wouldn't be alone, and you might make some great friends in the process. I wish the next 27...

Even though I haven't SI'd in over two years I'm still not comfortable with my scars (some in particular.) This is something I've struggled with for 8 years or so now. I used to always wish I could be ok with them and accept them, and believe me I have tried. I'm at the point now where I just want t...

5 things to cope with my emotions? Not the typical 5 things to survive? Hmm...

my boyfriend
my dog (if i had one)
music
video games
