Hey Lucy, welcome to RYL. It sounds like you've been through a lot, but it's great that you're starting to face it now, even though I'm sure it's really painful. I've seen you around, and I hope you're finding RYL helpful and supportive. Take care of yourself.

Hi there, welcome to the site. Everyone is friendly here and can help. You don't have to feel like ur on ur own. I'm sorry u gone through this and ur brave to have opened up cuz some people couldn't do that.

How's things now? You should feel proud of urself that u carried on with ur life without this effecting u. You deserve a lot better and there are people to help. Good to talk to someone as a family member or a friend. That's what u should do.

You can find out more advice on the advice pages for help and u can use chat where u can talk to other people in conversations on there and u canspeak to a mod about anything with talking about the chat for help etc. There is always someone to talk to and ur not alone. Good to talk and not bottle things up.

Have u spoken to anyone about this? There is proffession help out there and I can see there's a few things going on. Most people on the site has or is going through what ur gone through or going through. I have gone thrifty depression and still am.

Your be fine I'm sure.

Talk soon :)

Welcome to RYL, I'm sorry to hear about the depression and self harm and I'm especially sorry to hear about your past of sexual, mental and physical abuse. Do you see a therapist? I feel they can be very helpful with things like that. Either way, if you ever need someone to talk to feel free to PM me anytime you need to I can reply quickly most times

Hi there,

Welcome to RYL, I hope you find this place supportive.

I'm sorry to hear you've been through so much. It might be useful for you to take a look at the Self-Injury and Abuse forums.

Take care,

Have u spoken to anyone about this? Best to maybe speak to at least someone. Good to not bottle things up. I'm sorry that ur going through this and ur not on ur own. Trust me. You have everyone here who can help and talk to u.

I dont wether seeing the doctor will help u but it has to be in ur own time. Hopefully if u see the doctor they can help with putting u through to another organisation what can give u long term support with this. What do u think?

There are helplines out there who u can talk to instead. You said ur suffering from self harm and depression there are people who can help. Mind is a good place to talk to and u can ring them up or u can try The Samaritans.

What's making u not cope well? What's happened? I hope theres someone who knows what ur feeling like and who can be there for u cuz u dont need to be on ur own. Good that u can talk to us about it.

I'm here if u wanna talk x
