A story of a mother who has overcome addiction, had to come to terms with depression and ADHD. Just when she was on the road to recovery she became the parent of a selfharmer. After countless fights to get help to keep her daughter alive and coping with seeing her child covered in scars daily; she realised that she was surely not the only parent going through this stressful and soul destroying agony alone.   She contacted Facebook to allow her to use the words "self Harm" as they kept shutting her page down and she created POSH Parents of Self Harmers.  To this day she still tries and helps other worried parents and has been on local radio, newspapers and will continue to so as there is hardly no  support groups for parents here in the UK and abroad.  This is her story.

*TW* Contains topics and scenes of sexual assault, self-harm, abuse.* "You know you loved every second of it," I can feel the tears welling up as well as the anger building up within me. I stare at him for a while before I have to turn away from his hungry gaze. "Look I just came here to tell you that I forgive you for what you did back in Cali and I'll take you back," "You forgive me?" I yell. "I did nothing to you. You raped me! You fucking raped me! You have no right to come here and tell me that. You. Forgive. Me. You traumatized me. What you did to me tore me up inside and was eating away at me until I tried to kill myself. And when I told people they didn't believe me. I had to listen to so many people talk about how great a guy you were and how I clearly just regretted sleeping with you. You are a monster. You made me hate myself for something that was never my fault. You have caused me so much pain and suffering," I pause to take a deep breath. "So you don't get to come here to my school and tell me you forgive me. You don't get to make me feel bad about coming forward. The only thing I regret is ever thinking you were a good person." _____________________________________________ Logan Young is a 16-year-old girl about to start her senior year in a brand new town.

Alex's family struggles financially, and they have learned to rely only on themselves, as her parents are either distant or too wrapped up in their own problems to notice the bullying. Alex is observant and sensitive, noticing details others miss. She has learned to hide her pain, adopting a "silent endurance" approach. But inside, she anger has been building for years, and it is starting to break through the surface. she once tried to be invisible, but now she is starting to realize that invisibility will not protect her anymore. After a particularly cruel prank perhaps a video of Alex getting humiliated is posted online-she realizes she cannot take it anymore. She lost all hope in the school system, her parents, and even friends who turned their back on her. The only way to regain control is through revenge. Alex is tired of feeling powerless.

My Fucking Mess Of A Life

22 parts Complete

All the times I've had panic attacks, bad thoughts, etc. Basically all that shitty stuff. Warning: mentions of self harm, negative thoughts, and generally just depressing shit. Updates will happen whenever as I write when stuff happens to me because this is actually a non-fiction story. It doesn't seem like I'll be running out of things to write about any time soon though.
