5. What part of self harm do you dislike the most?
I find that more and more gorgeous women develop hideous Eating Disorders everyday. Close friends of mine, people that I have met in the past, people I have grown up with, even people I have only spoken to once: are falling in these horrifying cycles and patterns. I’m in recovery. I know how it’s feels. I know how it’s like. Please, don’t hide away. I’m scared for every other girl out there that is suffering. My heart breaks for every beautiful lady out there who doesn’t see how they truly look like. I want to help anyone that is struggling. Please, reach out for help. Life is meant to be free, not locked under numbers.

Anxiety is secretive. He does not trust anyone, not even his friends, Worry, Terror, Doubt and Panic … He likes to visit me late at night when I am alone and exhausted. I have never slept with him, but he kissed me on the forehead once, and I had a headache for two years. He is sure a nuisance to get out of the house. He has no respect for locks or curtains or doors. I speak from experience. It takes cunning to get rid of him, a combination of anger, humor, and self-respect. A bath helps too. He does not like to get wet. As a last resort, if you are not near a bathtub, wet your face with tears.

This was written totally raw and I’m not re-reading it to fix it. So yeah.
