This is a work of fiction.Any similarity to persons living or dead (unless explicitly noted) is
merely coincidental
Its not about healthy,unhealthy...Its not about right or wrong...Its not about mental illness or getting attention...It is all about the mental and emotional trauma...Being a self harmer in the past I did not cut myself for pleasure...I did not cut to get attention,no one cared a damn anyway...I cut to just release the pain which gnawed at my being...As I was afraid of dying this came close enough...It was just that the pain would get too much sometimes, gnawing at my heart not allowing me to breathe...Family and friends did not bother at all...My 'therapist' said don't cut too deep or my job would be in danger...She threatened me to mind my ways or else she'll start giving me medication which would make me feel drowsy all throughout the day because I was getting out of hand...I got out of self injury all by myself it was a hard and difficult process but certainly not impossible...I started fighting for my choice in everything and used art as a way to heal...I have finally won my battle and I am trying to support and help anyone who is still self harming and is trying to stop...
