Hello Everyone!
Happy Wednesday!
I hope that you are all having a fabulous week, with lots of fun and relaxation! Music can be a great self care tool, and I love listening to different songs to help lift my spirts. One of my all time favourites, is the lyric below - about how things will get better. It also happens to be by my favourite aritst so that helps
I also love 'Recover' by natasha bedingfield- has anybody heard of it? It's amazing

@emsworld Hey, How are you?
I'm eh, here but not really present.
Trying to get out of my head.
Too many for just one.
I'll find peace alongside the road
And make believe there's a
Sign for us all
The innocence, that I know I behold
Will set my spirit free, so long Volbeat- You will know
Hope you have a good day, Take care
@emsworld
Hey, hey! I hope your having a fabulous week too!
Things today are as good as they can be I suppose, got a mix up in school when I got sent out of maths as me walking out and being looked for without me even realising, sho confusion there but in general, I'm okie.
Still learning lyrics for a singing project which at the moment, one is of my favourite song, You Say by Lauren Daigle, just with my own interpretation compared to the actual meaning behind it.
I don't really have a favourite lyric but a very classic, possitive one, would have to be "What doesn't kill you makes you stronger", Kelly Clarkson, Stronger
Hey there @emsworld !! How's it going?
I'm doing alright. I don't seem to be feeling anything today, which isn't bad I guess.
I'm having trouble focusing on anything though, everything that's happened today seems like one big blur and I can't quite figure out what's going on from one moment to the next, even though I have a vague idea of what's SUPPOSED to happpen. I don't feel like I've done much today, when in reality I've done more today than I usually have these past few weeks, y'know?
My favourite song right now is "7734" by Sabaton. I'm into a lot of Swedish heavy/power metal and they're one of my favourite bands!!
As for song lyrics, there 2 ways this can go depending on what mood I'm in. Usually I would quote Psychostick's "Adulting, the pursuit of nothing" (they're metal but they sing about really silly stuff, one of their songs is literally listing off the steps to first aid and CPR), but if I'm in a more solemn/thoughtful mood, I would choose a line from Dodie Clark's "Secret for the mad" which goes: And there will be a day when you can say you're okay and mean it.
Sorry for the rant haha, I should probably go do some more schoolwork. See you around!!
So this week, I told my doctor and therapoist about my self-harm! And it's a HUGE step for me because I was always so incredibly ashamed of it. So it's a start I guess. And I will talk with my tharpist on how to reduce self-harm behaviours! :)
