dear 13-year old steph,
I could say stop what you're doing and completly change the direction your life is going. but im going to leave that decision up to you.
Either carry on the way you're going. you will end up being hurt by your friends, you will end up cutting yourself a lot, you will end up ODing and ending up in hospital. But you will get some help eventually, and you will meet some fabulous people along the way. Some who are so awesome, I wouldn't want you to miss out on knowing them.
Or you could change. Stop all the **** you're putting yourself through just now. Stop blaming other people for everything, take some responsibility for yourself, go out their and live your life. There is so much you could do. Stop doubting yourself, especially with your art, and do something. You're clever, so don't throw that all away.
The decision is yours, please make the right one. And do me a favour, go and be nice to your sister. She does get better, and you'll learn to love her.
lots of love,
17-year old steph. xx
