Hey... I'm new here.

[SongbirdSapphire]

Hi. I've never posted a thread on any site before, so go easy on me. ^_^;
I'm new here, and I've only recently started self-harming. I stopped for a few months, but some things happened and I started up again. Looking for some support... I'm in kind of a dark place right now, and I'm trying to figure out where to go in my life.

I swear, I'm actually a pretty fun person to be around, if you get to know me. :)

I love anime (ESPECIALLY Hetalia), and even have a cosplay outfit. ^^ I love fanfiction, and spend most of my time in front of my computer writing fanfiction and making an RPG (Roll-Playing Game). I enjoy listening to music immensely (Breaking Benjamin all the way~!), and love playing the piano, even though I can't read sheet-music to save my life. :P I play by ear, and I hope to learn the Viola soon (it's portable, and I can carry it with me wherever I go~!)

I'm currently in a relationship, but it's long-distance and we're struggling a bit with it. He's also suffering from depression and recovering from self-harm, and I fear that relying on him too much might make him slip back into that. So, here I am. :) Please be kind, and don't freak out if I get distracted with fanfiction for about a week or two. :P

Wow. Long introduction. Haha. Sorry about that. I'm either a clam or a chatty-Cathy. :P

Welcome to RYL!

You seem like a fun person to know! I also play the piano; not quite like I used to since I don't own one anymore, but I do have a descent keyboard.

Long-distance relationships are difficult (know that myself), still important just the same and very rewarding. It would be nice is people could actually meet a support each other in real life. I'm sorry you both find yourselves slipping back intro depression, but were are here to offer support and care. And as you wrote, sometimes a good distraction is what helps the most.
