“I try really really hard to not care about other people, but i cant do it. I feel as if every single decision i make is to make somebody else happy and no matter what i can never make everybody happy. it makes me feel like a failure and it rips my head in half to the point that cant sleep at night. but hey im still young.”

“I met a girl in the uni, I tried to tell her I like her, but I realised that she did noty want to be with me, so I decide not to tell her the true. And now people ask me about my feeling, and I just say that it is a matter of the past and must be there”

“I used to cut myself every single day. I went through all the help and eventually got better. I'm now dealing with high school the best I can- Until recently. I'm feeling myself start to slip again, and I'm beginning to feel hollow. I miss the little stinging pains in my left arm and on my legs, but I can't start cutting again- Something in me is repulsed by it. I've convinced myself that I'd be letting someone down by starting up again, even though deep down I know he wouldn't care. I miss feeling human. I miss feeling anything at all. ”
