TW: Self harm and eating disorder talk ❤️
Hi all, I'm new here and I self harm. I have for a long time and I don't know how to stop. It started when I began dealing with an eating disorder and has been going on for two and a half years.

Thank you so much! I have not gotten any help because I can't tell my family. I really appreciate you!
@Emanne111 hey, you!! I’m going through the EXACT same thing! It’s been a year and a half, almost two. The eating disorders for me started a LONG time ago, though. I promised myself this: once I turn sixteen, I can’t self-harm anymore. Do I know if I’ll follow through? No. I don’t. I hope I will. I feel like I can. I have a month left, so what I’m doing is “letting it out” and just doing what I can now to prepare myself to let go. It’s an addiction, right? Like alcohol or drugs. It’s an addiction, feeling the pain and seeing the blood. I know it is for me. So I degraded. I went from my usual object to something more difficult to harm myself with. And I degrade bi-weekly or so until my sixteenth birthday, where it’ll be almost impossible to do anything. For the eating disorder, I can’t help much with. I’ve been struggling with that for much longer, and I’ve gone from eating everything in sight to counting calories, and sometimes I still do. It’s what I’m planning to work on next. Maybe you can set a goal for yourself as well?
lots of love, Kia.
I have tried to stop with the sh I have set goals and I have failed. Everytime I say I can't do it anymore I want to do it way more. I'm sorry that you are struggling with both sh and an eating disorder. I hope you can reach your goal.
