EVERYTHING SUCKS EVERYTHING JUST SUCKS! I JUST SAW IN A HALF HOUR EVERYTHING THAT WAS MAKING ME HAPPY GO DOWN THE DRAIN. My parents have been nothing but upset with me, my closest friends are ignoring me, someone who means the world time not wants nothing to do with me and is cutting himself again over something I did, and my new boyfriend might become my exboyfriend. I just want it to all go away. I feel like the house of security is just coming down around me. I just want to slice my skin till it bleeds just enough to keep me alive. I am hurting everyone I love and I can't handle my self. Crying harder than ever and have been cut free for over 5 months but I don't give a damn I will do it now and forever.

no. don't do it. i know you can fight it. please, just think of all the good things in life. even if it's something like a movie you want to see in a few weeks, or your favorite tv show... i'll tell you something, right now, i'm living so i can see the 2nd season of The Walking Dead... and whenever i get depressed and feel like giving up, that's what i turn to. you just have to find something like that, even if it's a little thing, because eventually, all the little things add up. you can fight it hun. you can do it. i have faith in you

Becoming emotionally independent is tough business...hard to do if you don't know how.

It's the relationships in our lives that hurt so much. We hold a lot of hope that others can bring us comfort...but, it doesn't always happen.

But, you can be sure that you can learn to be a comfort to others and something that can bring a lot of comfort would be you finding a more comfortable place in your life so you don't have to self-injure.

Keep learning about who you are...because I think great things lie within you and your life.

You are still so young and have so much to live for. Cutting is not the answer. The problems you are experiencing right now most people have dealt with. You are not alone. Please ask a school councelor for help or ask your mom or dad to see a therapist. You need to reach out for support. You cant always do things on your own. I am sorry you are so upset.
