I decided this needed to be said and talked about since it's a pretty heavy topic and not many people like to go into speech about it. I am here to be a person that will help, I want to show that people don't need to be ashamed of anything they have going on. This will be about self - harm, in specific, my self - harm. I want to be more open about it since it isn't anyone's fault, it is mine if anyone needs to be blamed at all. Anyways, I want to give this as a notice for anyone who is struggling or thinking about it. I am A L W A Y S here to help and my messages are always open to anyone needing to talk.

Locked In

You don't believe me anyways. You don't see me throwing away my inhibitions or filling up my online shopping cart. You don't see me diving into new life goals and careers and areas of study. You don't see my cry to myself in the car when my chest sinks in and my head gets crushed in a vice. You don't feel the panic in my stomach whenever I must make human contact. And you sure don't see how hard I try. How I wake up every morning and apply my mask. My work mask- to conceal all of this. But.... It's been the same mask for many years And my mask is wearing thin. My sadness, my anger, my paranoia and grand euphoria are trying to become a part of your world too. A world where it's not welcome. A world where it's not understood, where it's frowned upon.
