“People who self-injure usually do not want to die. When they self-harm, they are not trying to kill themselves—they are trying to cope with their problems and pain. In fact, self-injury may be a way of helping themselves go on living.”

I seriously can’t agree more with this sentence. However there are times, I feel the other way instead. I feel like dying would be a better idea, an easier way to cope with everything.

I used to think self-harming is stupid, and no one should resort to that no matter what but now, I understood why. The physical pain overcomes the emotional pain, and it reduces the emotional pain we feel.

Anyone, around you can be smiling and be happy, but what happens when they’re alone at home on their bed, in the shower, or even on the streets. Thoughts that kills them emotionally begin, smile on their face turns, with tears rolling down their cheek. 

I guess there wouldn’t be anyone being happy all the time. there are good times, bad times, and times u wished didn’t exist at all. we get through them everytime but no one is fully happy for sure. anyone around us can be self harming when their sad, anxious, frustrated. it doesn’t have to be the attention seekers. nope it doesn’t. The bitter truth is, we do it in secret. we cover them up, and will feel ashamed if others were to ask or talk about it. 

But no matter what, we have to move on and continue to live our life, unless death comes upon us. Have faith & believe.
