Positive recovery post - 3 years free

On the 7th of March 2010 I made my first post on RYL after I began to struggle with self harm and had nowhere and no one to turn to. My life has gone through so many ups and down and everyday I am fighting my mental illnesses. Today the 27th of March 2021 I finally made it 3 years without cutting. The longest time since I first began to self harm. I never could have imagined a me that could achieve this, but I did and I am so proud of myself. I haven't posted on here for a few years (what even is my icon and signature lmao) but I'll never forget the support and comfort I was given here when I was truly alone. Thank you ❤️

...My smile's just the armour I built when I was alone...

There was some part of me that hurt so badly, that I wouldn't ever be able to forget it.
It faded but the memories could bring it back any second, keeping me in the moment.
It would never fully heal. I could never really be free. I could never really be fixed.
Now I just have to work out how to live whilst being broken.
I feel like I'm dying.

Well done, that is a huge achievement with or without support from here. Keep going!

Don't try to calm the storm, calm yourself, the storm will pass.

You didn't come this far just to come this far.
