I want to talk about a topic that& #39;s really close to me.
I self harmed for the first time when I was 15 I think, I was just not in a good place at all, I was struggling with gender, family and definitely friendship.
I knew two close friends who had self harmed

And I kinda blamed myself (which I know is a shitty thing to do, but as with everything else I just felt that I should have noticed the signs and tried to help them find a better coping mechanism or something)
I may not show that side a lot here on twitter..

But I am so scared of losing the people I love (platonically and romantically)
And I just feel like everything bad happening is my fault or that I should somehow be able to help. So obviously learning that your friends has self harmed is somewhat devastating

All that was going through my head was just ways of helping them through the tough times without making them uncomfortable, I felt like such a bad friend
But my experience with my own mental health and self harm has shown me that the best place to help someone is to give them the needed space, and reassure them that you& #39;ll be there to talk to if need (this experience may vary, I obviously can& #39;t talk for everyone)
Well I think it& #39;s kinda funny in some way, I& #39;ve always been told that I can& #39;t save the entire world, so I& #39;d say, that i& #39;d start with a fraction and work through it
To no one& #39;s surprise I& #39;ve failed miserably, cuz yeah my mom might be abusive, but def think she knows what she& #39;s talking about.
I have no relavence and I don& #39;t know if I& #39;ve ever been of any help to anyone, but what I just want is for no one to go through what I, and countless others have gone through, I want people to remember me as a kind-hearted person
I never really know if I& #39;m good enough, but fuck it if I won& #39;t at least try to make everyone feel safe, I might not be the most knowledgeable on some issues, but I try to understand, and I won& #39;t dismiss something just because I don& #39;t understand
So for anyone who feels like they& #39;re going through what I did, and still do, I will try to always be available for a chat (if you want to talk about your issues, I& #39;m not very likely to answer if you just want small talk)
Alternatively if you don& #39;t feel like I& #39;m the person you need, I will gladly give some phone numbers in the next couple of tweets
