selfharmsober

This is a big deal for me.
I started self harming when I was 14 years old, my home life wasn't a safe or comfortable place for me, I was finding it hard to concentrate at school and it was then when I realised there was something wrong with me because I couldn't sustain a happy mood for long.
Self harm did a lot of different things for me, it made me feel numb when I needed it, it was a method of self punishment, it was a distraction.
Self harm became an addiction to me, I could barely go days without hurting myself.
When I moved out of my abusers house and into my Fathers, I thought my addiction was finally over. But that didn't last long. It lasted 9 whole months before I finally gave back in.
Since then I've tried so hard to stop, and it's been a struggle.
I've finally made it to the longest I've ever been clean from my addiction, and I intend to stay clean this time. I refuse to give back in.
I'm getting a custom designed tattoo to commemorate this important occasion in two weeks, I'll post a photo of it once it's healed.
I'm making 2020 my year. 💪💪 #Selfharm #Recovery #MentalHealth #selfharmsober #SelfharmRecover #IAmSober
