About Me
I am a college freshman that is extremely shy and awkward and I have depression which sometimes seems like just too much to deal with. I am big into volunteering because I think if everybody volunteered the world would be a much better place. I love children and want to teach some day and my family is a very important part of my life.

I hope you feel better mara8!!!

Hey. I've been where you are. I used to injure myself a lot. I've managed to resist the urge for over half a year now.. but that time was a relapse and I have considered myself an EX-self-injurer for about 2 or 3 years now. I know it is hard, and I understand the temptation. But it seems every time we are tempting to hurt ourselves we forget that it didn't make the pain go away last time...
It's not worth it, hun. You know that and I know that.
Please be strong.
Have you considered joining the SI support group on here?
You can always talk to me, ok?
I’m With You
