Positive recovery post - Some positivity from me, a rare occasion. :)

This year is ten years since I was diagnosed with OCD and anxiety, the fourth year since I started cutting, three since I started burning myself, three since I was diagnosed with depression, two since I started ODing as a form of self injury, one since I started seeing a psychologist, one since I told my mum and it's been six months since I told my family, who all reacted well, considering. And it's almost two months since I last self harmed. It's one month until my year twelve formal, and I've decided I'm going to wear short sleeves; I went and picked out my dress with my mum two weeks ago, and she, my dad, and my brother will all be there to support me. I am so nervous and terrified about the reactions to my scars it's crazy. But I also can't wait, I'm so excited. And it means I'm also going to be wearing short sleeves this summer. Just thought I'd share. :)



If you spoke to other people the way you speak to yourself, how many friends would you have?
Be kind to yourself.
You're only human.

That's great! I'm very happy for you, and the best of luck with wearing short sleeves!




your heart is a muscle the size of your fist
keep on loving, keep on fighting
and hold on, and hold on, hold on for your life

i'm sorry that you have been through all that (i know the ocd and anxiety all too well myself) but am glad that you are moving forward with your life :) i hope that the formal goes wonderfully!




this is my magical medicine cabinet. Left to right they contain: courage, hope, calmness, and strength.

The magical part: They NEVER run out, so borrow some any time you want.
