TW: the topic of this episode of self harm. While it's a positive story of how I've stayed cleans, I know this topic generally can be touchy and possibly triggering for people, so I'm putting up this warning to be safe!
I've always struggled with my mental health, but I was at my worst through my teens and into my early 20's. Today I share with you where I was mentally when I was self harming the most, and what habits helped get me to a good enough place I wanted to reach out for help. I also share what some of the resources were that got provided to me, and truly have helped me stay clean!
The habits/tips I share do not make you better overnight BUT they can help, if you give them a real chance and can get yourself to a place you feel comfortable reaching out for help. If you are seriously struggling, hotlines are available worldwide and my DMs on Instagram are always open!
