So…after many struggles and trying to lift myself up off of the ground and many blessings, I have finally made it. I MADE IT! I am so proud of myself. As much shit as I’ve been through and I’ve actually made it so far. I lost my dad, I lost my mom to drugs, I lost my house, I lost my dog, I was put in a total strangers house who only wanted me for a paycheck. I made it through high school all by myself. I applied to college all by myself. I am MAKING it. I still have moments where I feel like I want to relapse on my cutting but then I am able to look at my room…my college dorm room and I tell myself. WOW, I’m going somewhere. It is so hard. I love my daddy and I know he is still here with me….

Such an uplifting post, I’m really happy for you hun. Keep doing it! I’m very sorry about your struggles too-I couldn’t have made it as far as I did without my parents help-even though there were times I really hated them.
I guess I’m in a similar boat as you-I feel that “I’m making it” despite all the shit I’ve had to go through in my life. I think I’m getting closer to climbing to my next plateau-where I’ll finally begin to live well and enjoy life. Don’t get me wrong there’s a lot of work still left for me to do. It’s going to be big (for me) so I won’t get into any detail but I think I can do it.
And to a side-point, yes our world is a very cruel and horrible place, especially towards weak, vulnerable and powerless people. I was in a lower state in life once and despite my university education, I got treated like crap-because I didn’t have a job/no money. So I fixed that problem and it made a big difference. I feel sorry for anyone stuck on the lower rungs, esp. for girls-it’s dog eat dog out there.
I’m still around because there are some things about life I really love and want to enjoy before I die. So I’m going to try to make the most out of the next decade or two, before I give suicide some more serious consideration (so long as things don’t fall apart on me).
I know that it must have been very difficult for you to stay strong… I know there are days where you stumble and fall… But you know what… you have a gift of getting up on your own two feet and heading out stronger… Keep your chin up and be proud… Im so happy for you. 🙂
Keep pushing girl 🙂
