There's Always Light at the End of the Tunnel

Lately I have been struggling a lot with things that are going  on in my own life and well I began to think that there was no hope left for me and that I have no future to look forward to and I was really pretty down and I really didn't know what to do with my self and then out of no where I saw that my family do care about me and they are the people that are going to get me through all of the hard times. I now know that no matter how many fights we have or how many times I annoy them they are always going to be there for me no matter what! The other day my brother sent me a message on facebook and well I think that was what I really need to help me to get my head straight and think about getting back on track and it has it has done a lot for me. To be honest if it wasn't for hm I would have just have gone the way that I have been going and not even stopped to think about things. It made my whole view on things change and I decided that it was time to be honest with the docto...

I heard about this charity while I was in hospital and I decided to look it up. I had never heard anything about it until I was in a group and we were talking about things in the news paper and this charity SOS came up and we had a discussion about it. The charity SOS is Suicide or Survive and is  a charity that was set up to help reduce the stigma that is attached to mental health and mental health difficulties. Here is the link to the charity website take a look at the website and see what you think of it yourself. I know when I was going through a rough time and I heard about this charity and did some research that it helped me to understand things a bit better but it also helped me to feel that I was not alone in everything that was going on for me. It really did make a difference for me and I am glad to say that this website is one of the reasons that I am still here today and that I am here writing this post. This really is a truly and amazing website and I am glad I found ...

I was doing some research on the internet about different ways people can cope with their urges to self harm and I found this very useful site. Take a look at it here . I use ome of theses different things to help me cope with my stong urges. The most important thing that I have learned about dealing with my urges to self harm is that it wont hurt to try anything new. If it doesnt work then it doesnt work and try something new. You can be suprised at the things that can help you cope..... I was very reluctant to try some things to help me cope but once I did I realised that they were really useful and they have helped me with my recovery so far.

So yeah things have just been a bit up and down especially over the past few days and I was feeling pretty shit..... I was talking to someone who without even knowing has helped me more than she can imagine through everything that is going on. I know this person for a few years and she has experienced some of the things that I am going through right now and to be honest if it wasnt for her I would have given up a long time ago. I couldnt understand why bad things kept happening to me and they were always getting me down and this friend said that when things got her down she just thought of it as another hurdle and it was going to make her stronger. I was thinking about this for a while and in the beginning i thought it didnt make any sense and...
