For the first time....

[DarkWingedAngel]

For the first time ever I told my best friend about me being all depressed and the cutting and suicide attempts.
I thought she was going to tell everyone and socially isolate me, but she didn't.
Instead I got a big hug.
She told me it was ok and that if i needed help I could always call her or talk to her on msn.
She wanted proof of me cutting and burning myself.
I said no but she insisted that i show her, so I said fine and showed her.
She took it a lot better than i thought she would.
I'm still really depressed and suicidal, but im happier to know that I told someone and that she listened to me.
She asked me to try not to kill myself, she said that she would be very sad if I were to go, and that she would never forget about it.
She said that she really loved me(as in friends) and then gave me a good long hug.

I guess im telling you this because I found out that at least one of my friends cares about me, and that i will still cut and burn myself, but i will try my best not to commit suicide.

just remember that next time you want to cut,
and next time you feel isolated, remember people care more than you think

I think i was a born depressive and have gone through similar things. but it all gets better in the end. you learn that even though you may not be the happiest person in life...no one can stop you from seeking, creating, or being happy in your life and thats all that matters :)

its always good to find someone who truly cares. my problem is that i tell people, my brother of friends, when they demand to know, and then slip back into my ways of secrecy and not sayin anything again.
please dont slip into my ways. you have a life line now, use it well!

Well done for telling her.
It will be easier now that you've got her support. But the thing self harmers (sorry if thats the wrong word) dont realise is how much it affects the people around them. I never realised how much it affected my friends and family until i had to clean up my dads cuts.

Well thast good. It always helps to know you have a friend like that. When i told my friend she laughed at me and called me emo. and then made fun of my and continues too..and i thought she was one of my closer friends. she said it was really sad. it really hurt me..
