My already scarred arms were covered in bruises. I had hit them against walls and punched myself repeatedly. My crush, who is clean from cutting, asked me what happened...

All I said was," I like bruises"

She said nothing.

My best friend, who thankfully has never struggled with self harm, asked what happened...

I said," You already know"

She said," I know you like bruises, but I asked what happened. What happened?"

I told her," I happened. I did it."

She simply said,"Okay. But, never again, next time call me"

Recovery is a long road.
I hope I make it.
