Self-harm journal + comforting words

1. Self-harm

I ask all readers of this article:

Do you self-harm?

Or, do you have a friend or family member who self-harms?

I self-harm.

Those who do not self-harm,

Some of you guys are honestly, honestly, honestly wondering why you do this.

I don't know why people self-harm.

I guess it's just hard

Have you ever thought like this?

I had two friends.

One day, the kids saw the marks I had cut myself with.

The two friends reacted differently.

A is like...oh my...why are you doing that...it hurts...

B is...what's wrong with you...what's wrong with you...

Two similar but different reactions

Of course I was attracted to B

however

The next day B came up to me

He also showed me the self-harm marks on his arm.

I asked if you also harm yourself.

Then B said he started yesterday

Of course I asked why

"You did it to yourself so I did it too lol

I think I know why I'm doing this

"It relieves all the stress and makes me feel refreshed."

And you were going around bragging about it?

What do you think

I honestly felt bad

Self-harm is not a joke

I'm doing this because I'm really having a hard time

My friend is just a stress reliever, but it looks dark somewhere, so it looks like there's something there

I knew it like this

If you have a friend around you who is self-harming, please stop thinking like this.

Just give this friend a pat on the back for having a hard time.

For no reason

You are precious

Your parents suffered so much to give birth to you.

So stop doing this.

Please don't say things like that

But who doesn't know?

Even though I know

It's so hard

It's so painful

I want to die but I'm holding back

We too are struggling to live diligently.

Honestly, I can't say why other than because it's hard for me too.

In my case, I would pinch myself when I was stressed since I was little.

Scratching

This is a case where a habit such as biting the inside of the mouth developed into self-harm.

Because everyone has different reasons

and

People who self-harm

No matter how hard it is, let's live hard and support each other like this.

The scars on our arms, legs and hands

It shows how hard I am and the catfish is not a barcode

At least we are alive

We have feelings too

We also have blood flowing through us

We are also human and have the right to be respected and live happily.

It's a message

Please write in the comments about the hardships you've had.

Let's live by giving to and supporting each other.

Please write down all your worries.

Because there are no useless worries in this world :)
