I actually self-harm to “deal with” life and to keep myself alive. That might sound counterintuitive, but that’s how my brain works.
Emotion, including sadness, is part of being human. Being sad doesn't have to be a bad thing.
I decided that it was okay if I failed, as long as I gave myself permission to succeed, too.

We deserve to seek help without stigma from those tasked with caring for us.
You don’t deserve to be alone, and you don’t deserve to feel the pain of isolation.

I had to convince myself I was never a freak. I was 15 and did not know how to cope.

There never were any attempts to end my life, rather I wanted the emotional pain to end. And that desire was a catalyst to turn all the emotional pain into physical pain...
My shame will not survive.
