You're always at your worst point when no one's around. 17/04/2015

 

LETTING OUT EMOTIONS

WITH SUBTLE SCRAPES

AND CUTS TO THIGHS.

I'VE DONE IT AGAIN,

I'VE LET MYSELF DOWN.

RELAPSE

RELAPSE

RELAPSE

THE ONLY WAY TO LET IT OUT

IS HAVING A FRESH BLADE

TO ALREADY SCARRED SKIN.

THE STING FEELS REAL

YOU'RE REAL

YOU'RE REAL

YOU'RE REAL

ALIVE BUT BROKEN AND BRUISED;

THE LONELINESS DOESN'T FADE

AND YOU’RE STUCK WITH

YOUR OWN MISTAKE

OF A RELAPSE.

First I am sorry. Your statement when no one is around is true for I think all of us. You're at the more extreme issue when alone compared to me and others. But for all of us the dark is the same and we just deal with it differently. And over the years the darkness may stay near, but you learn better how to maintain your response to it. Thank you for sharing a beautiful yet sad piece of your life. Good luck in the future and keep up the writing. It's part of my solution.

I'm sorry to hear about your relapse and I can definitely relate to this. I used to cut for 5 years, on and off, and found it so hard to just 'stop' like everyone wanted me to. I wanted to show them that saying it wasnt easy, to show that they didnt understand the inner struggle, the urges. I managed to finally stop in December. I hope you find comfort in these words and know that I'm always here if you need someone...stay strong!

[Cherub]

thank you for the kindness. I was clean for 6 months, and all of a sudden the urge was just, too strong. hopefully I get a hold of myself. I still feel really guilty about it.

[I Am Svetlana]

It's okay to feel guilty about it. I hate myself after a relapse too, it's completely normal. Just take it day by day and do things that distract you whenever the urge tries to come back.

I wish you well :)
