Remembering stupid things I did in the past
My thoughts when I get down
My seeing of how my friends don't care for me anymore
Being ignored more than once in multiple places by the same group of people
The mirror
My social problems
and a few more..

Seeing my scars
Remembering the past
Being bullied
The scale


Kallie~ Can'tLive-WithOrWithoutYou (GlambertPhan15) | 859 comments Looking at my arms and seeing my scars( but this always helps remind me to never go back to who I was then)
My parents fighting
Remembering all the people who betrayed me
Stress
Missing my brother
Not being able to do my favorite sport
Someone who helped me through the most difficult time in my life is leaving and I may never see him again.
Being overprotected
Having no privacy

Summer (wildskf) I can't say that they are triggers for self-destructive behaviors for me anymore. I've been to a lot of counseling and read a lot of self-help books. I can confidently say that I feel nearly healed... but there are a few things that'll put me in a gloomy mood...

- seeing my scars
(not from cutting; it was from a bullying incident...)
- being left out or ignored
(everyone always seems to be hanging out without me)
- being teased for what I like
(I'm a big kid at heart and though I'm grown, I still get a little embarrassed and hurt when people say things like "You watch Scooby Doo? Isn't that, like, for kids? Aren't you too old for that?")


message 6: by [deleted user] (new)

message 9: by [deleted user] (new)

Guys I don't know if I'm going to help a little. Everyone probably tells you this. I'm young. I'm a little kid. Just me. When I read this I feel really sad. I know what it feels like to just be bullied. It happens to me. I know you guys won't believe me but your heart may not be actually bigger than you brain but it really is. You might hate yourself, feel like your not worth it. Feel like whenever someone looks at you they comment on how ugly you are, you may look at people and wish you could be them for a day but it's all crap.
You're you because your you.
This is yuck I know but...
You were racing as sperm and YOU got to the egg in time.
You might wanna get out and live as someone else but I really believe that there's something in the world for each and every one of us. Things may have gone to the ditch now but it's not over tell its over. Please don't make over any sooner. This sounds like just another person telling you this. Telling you stuff you think isn't true but please know,
Everything happens for a reason and you are here. You stand here. You control you. We worked for our place in the earth. Life is good. It really is, because in life there is this thing called love. Maybe you don't have a boyfriend or a girlfriend, I know I sure as hell don't but you can find love anywhere. Not even with a human being and love is free. Please, for me....
Please don't look in the mirror and think ugly. Please don't cover yourself in make up and cry over yourself.
Please just smile.
Smile:)
Go out and enjoy yourself. Ignore the mirror but don't call yourself ugly.
Love yourself and you will be loved. Even the ugliest woman in the world can look beautiful if she just puts her head high and proves everyone wrong. You can do that.
You really can!

Thanks Jo:)


message 11: by Sierra (new)

Sierra (skippingstones4) I really like that Jo, it made my day :)


message 12: by [deleted user] (new)

Really it makes me so upset when you guys feel you aren't good enough. You control your happiness. Nobody else.


message 13: by [deleted user] (new)

There are just some days it's hard to convince yourself to be happy.


message 14: by [deleted user] (new)

I know. I just want you to find that person who is telling you otherwise and tell then to go die in a hole. Please guys....
If you say to yourself... I am happy... I know that you can do it. I really know. Your mind is stronger than anything else u know...


message 15: by [deleted user] (new)

Yeah. Ok.


message 16: by Sierra (new)

Sierra (skippingstones4) Thanks Jo :)


message 17: by [deleted user] (new)

That's ok. Guys, next time you feel like this, would you be able to tell me. I might not know much but I will want to at least help you. As much as I can. As good as I can, before you do any self damage. I just want the best. You only live life once.
God I had that phrase. Though as true as it may be...


message 18: by [deleted user] (new)

I gotta sleep now.
Have wonderful dreams...
You are beautiful k? I don't even know you but I think every one is. Maybe coz that stupid mirror wants to get you down. Well stuff that.
Coz since when do I believe in the judgement of a reflection right? You make the rules from here on. YOU!!!!!
Love y'all:)


message 19: by [deleted user] (new)

Yeah. I haven't in almost 5 weeks. At camp, I promised my friend I wouldn't ever again and and I am going to do everything it takes to keep that promise. If I do though, I will come to you.

Summer (wildskf) Thanks, Jo. That was really sweet :)


message 24: by [deleted user] (new)

Honestly, I know how hard it is. When there is a little voice saying cut yourself you ugly being. I want you to know that you are you and that your worth it.


message 25: by [deleted user] (new)

message 26: by [deleted user] (new)

message 33: by Roxanne (last edited Aug 20, 2013 05:26PM) (new)

Roxanne Shriver (roxannexshriver) 1.) My ex friend.

2.) My mom.

3.) Haters of the LBGT community.

4.) Being critiqued on anything other than my writing.

5.) People that are convinced that in order to be into Yaoi you either have to be gay or an old perverted man.

(First of all, just because you're gay doesn't necessarily mean you're into Yaoi, and second of all most Yaoi fangirls are both teenagers and females. Its statistically proven.)


message 34: by [deleted user] (new)

1. Abuse of any kind.
2. Racism
3. People who yell.
4. Ignorance.
5. Haters
6. People who text while driving.
7. Narcissists

Ken (kensamcampo) 1. People who are mean to me or my crush or my friends when I am not around

message 37: by [deleted user] (new)

losing my knife in a hotel
thinking about my cousin
boys making fun of me for being "the tough girl"
looking at my feet...why toes, why????


message 38: by [deleted user] (new)

Nobody should be PUNISHED for making bad descisions...you know that. Punishment is old fashioned and uneccesary...restorative justice is the way forward. How can you stop it happening again...Human Animals respond to pain..but only in a pavlovian reactive way. Everything alive responds positively to sunshine !

Is that why you wanted to be punished yesterday? Oh Sora, you do not need to be punished.


message 40: by [deleted user] (new)

-My sexual orientation

message 41: by [deleted user] (new)

((These trigger sadness, not behavior changes.))


message 42: by [deleted user] (new)

I have a skin thing that I didn't know about until second grade, before then I rarely put on sunscreen so I have dark splotches on both arms,


message 43: by [deleted user] (new)

I wouldn't quite say that.... Gtg, bed.
