I can answer in depth and with great vivid description most questions regarding self-harm, the reason behind it and even rationalize the state of mind one might be in when cutting. I won't claim to be an expert in any other area but this one. I would like to offer my assistance to others like me who need an opinon from a firsthand view. :)
I have been a self-mutilator for 11 years now. I have seen its steady progression and addictive hold on a very personal level. I have seen its early stages and the horror one slip up can cause.
Firsthand experience. They really don't teach you this stuff in schools. :)

Hello, Alycia. :) Nice to meet you, though I'm sorry it's under these circumstances. :( How long has it been since you've last hurt yourself? If it has been recently, I'm definitely afraid you might
Hi, Candy (lovely name, by the way). I think our friends often underestimate how serious self-harm really is - that, or they DO know and they're afraid for you so they try to make it seem like it's such
I'm sorry to say this, dear, but if you're having ideas about self-harm and your boyfriend is thinking about suicide, that's a bad mix for you to be in. Oftentimes self-harm is not far behind suicide
