    • About Me

      im 19 years old, though much older mentally and much younger emotionally. i have been cutting for almost 5 years now, have BPD and have a hard time making friends because i an extreamly shy. i spent 4 years in high level group homes, and found myself friendless and alone when i left them.this was hard, not only because of the lonelyness, but also because one of my passions is helping those in need and this left me feeling useless.
