I am five years clean

I don't know the exact date of when I last self harmed, but it was around this time five years ago. I cannot believe it. I used to do it every day, sometimes multiple times a day. I was clean for a couple years, then relapsed during my first year of college. Now it has been five years. Just saying that feels crazy to me.

I just want to say to anyone struggling, you can do it too. It was always the first thing I went to whenever I felt any emotions. Now I don't even really think about it. I still struggle with my depression. But now I have other outlets for coping. If I can get clean and stay clean for this long, you can too.

I am posting this here because I don't really talk to anyone about this. Take care you all.

@cherryskiies I am just now realizing it is actually four years. But the sentiment still stands.
