TRIGGER WARNING
My name is Amy, I'm now 16 although this diary starts when I was 15. I started writing this diary as an outlet for my thoughts and struggles with depression, self-harm and an eating disorder. May sound clichéd that I'm experiencing these things as a teenage girl but it shouldn't be clichéd because these things shouldn't happen to anyone. This tells the story of events leading up to and my first admission to inpatient.
We all need resilience to survive.
