Trigger warning: self harm

I was waiting for the 100 day mark but it totally slipped my mind when it happened
so I’m now 110* days clean from self harm.
The holidays had hit me really hard & I had a relapse in December but I’ve been feeling on top of the world lately (1/?)

In honor of passing this milestone I decided to make a list of all the things I would’ve missed if I had succeeded in my s*icide attempt or had tried again during a relapse:

- finishing high school

- All of my college acceptances and scholarship offers (2/??)

- finally finding a group of friends that genuinely care about me and encourage me to do my best

- I would’ve missed 3 new additions to our family and meeting my baby cousins

- I would’ve missed all 18 of my sisters poetry publications
(3/??)

- I would’ve never left the country or seen Europe

- I would’ve missed years worth of thanksgivings, chrismahunukkahs (yeah, you read that right), birthdays, and everything else

I would’ve missed out on everything. and everyone else would’ve missed me there. (4/5)

There are a million more reasons I’m glad that I’m still here to see my life happen.
I guess I’m posting this thread bc I want other people to feel like they don’t want to miss anything either.

Life would go on, but you should be there to see it (5/5)
