American Hi! / You've stumbled here while searching for something. Well...so did I. / I am a recovering self harm addict. So get to know me?
I have overcome my demons, The struggles I once faced. I am a new person, With thicker skin. In time; Words became my comfort. The scars are just lines, From blades in the past.

Soon
I guess it goes to show, There is a light. I went away. Mentally, Not physically. I needed to help myself, I did. I've been long gone. Lost. So tell me what to do. How have I lived? I haven't hurt in months. Yet I want too.

Long Gone
Watching myself, I laugh, but feel nothing. I smile, but it doesn't meet my eyes. I cry, and everything comes out. Watching you, You laugh at my pain. You smile at my suffering. You cry at my death. Watching everyone, Laugh at the girl who died. Smile at her pictures. Cry at her stone.

Watching
How can I recover? I just can't. I need my blades, ***** five months. I am a failure, In everyone's eyes.

Recover?
You controlled me, For at least eight months. You made my life hell, When everyone was trying to fix it. I blamed myself, Hell, I still do. You are a psychopath, I tried to fix you. Obviously I couldn't, Now I live with this Anxiety. I live in constant fear. I never thought someone, Would do this. Someone would treat me so bad. You're just like my father. I guess I couldn't help you. I should have helped myself first.

Anxiety
I'm alive I'm recovering. Slowly, But I am. I am winning, The battle I've fought. It's been a long time. I will win. Through the shakes, The mood swings, Everything

Winning
I feel dead, Not dead, dead. Just dead. Emotionally, Physically, Mentally, Dead. It's been one month, Three weeks, Six days. Or... 1,392 hours, Where I haven't been alive. It's like **** Like a cigarette, Even alcohol. There's a rush, Then there's the numb feeling, Then blood. I miss it ******

One Thousand Three Hundred Ninety Two
One month, Clean of mutilation. No razor, Dragged across my skin. White thin scars, Mocking my recovery. Wanting me to add more, So they have friends. I won't give in, I will be clean. I will make you proud, I promise.

One Month
Recovery, It's scary, Full of the unexpected. I can't do this alone, Contrary to belief, Please don't leave me. I need support, Or I will fall, Once again.

Recover
Ana, She took me. She brought me down to her level, Spitting those words at me; You're fat! You will never be small enough! Little did I know, She had a friend. Mia tried to control, Spewing profanities. But I couldn't purge, I was too weak. So I restricted, I counted the calories. I could feel when I gained weight, I could feel the fat. I wanted to rip it off, Just scream. My head is throbbing, From lack of nutrients. But I don't care. Until that scale says zero, I will never be thin enough.
