Hi

[WaitingGame]

So obviously I'm new here and I want to get to know people. So please feel free to leave a little bit about yourself and ask me some questions.

I'll start....
I'm 23, F, UK. I self harmed from the age of 12 and more or less stopped at 18 - although I've still cut on very rare occasions since and I still find it hard not to. Reason being that I have a boyfriend who doesn't know much about my experience with SH and I don't want him to see any new cuts.
I've had suicidal thoughts since I was about 12 too and attempted suicide by hanging when I was 14, however no one knows that. I have planned other attempts but never went through with it for various reasons. I came close again when I was 16. I never thought I'd see past the age of 18 so now I feel lost.

Welcome! I'm sorry your life has been so bad that you have felt the need to attempt suicide. Have you sought help for your problems at all?

Hello! Welcome to the site! I hope you enjoy your time here. ❤

I'm female and I'm from USA. I started having suicidal thoughts when I was 13. I self harm when I was 14 and stopped for a while til I was 16 and started self harming again. I would occasionally self harm now. I only recently started going to therapy and taking antidepressants. I still want to die everyday though.

What brings you here? :) Have you tried getting help? Edit: Sorry everyone is asking you the same question
