    • About Me

      I'm Emmie and I'm 18 years old. Everything started going wrong when I was badly bullied at school. My "friends" never supported or stuck up for me. I ended up being taught at home which was VERY socially isolating. It had a huge effect on me. I havent had any friends for about 4 years, up until recently. I still only have 1 friend now though. I also feel some members of my family dont support me and look down at me. These problems and too many more to mention here have lead to me sometimes getting very depressed and cutting myself as a way to relieve the mental pain by turning it into physical pain, which I find much easier to cope with.
