I'm not actually super old, I'm only 26. But considering I first posted on this forum when I was 19... considering the things I was going through then and how different my issues are now......

What would you want in a care package?

One of my best friends is moving away within the month. I won't be able to go visit her, because she's moving more than 1000 miles from where we are now. And I know she's having a really really...

Is your wound still bleeding? (I think it's been about 6 hours since you posted.) If so, you definitely should seek medical attention.

Yeah, I do. I'm an adult but I'm living with my parents because I've had a hard time finding a job.

I'm always really careful to hide my tools and wounds and scars, because I know they would be...

I am not ok right now. Honestly I should probably have someone keeping an eye on me. It would be a good idea for me to talk to my counselor.

I brought it up with my counselor today... and chickened out.

I'm ready to call it abuse in my own mind, but I still can't bring myself to say it in the presence of anyone else. I guess I'm afraid...

Thank you for your kind words. It means a lot to have someone else acknowledge what happened.

My dad and my brother are downstairs yelling about something. I can't really make out the words, but I can tell they're both very angry. I guess the specifics don't really matter anyway, because it's...

It depends on the person and what you've been doing, but I would say that the average person (at least where I live/of who I know) showers once or twice a day.

For example, maybe if you sweat a lot...
