This is a blog about my life with depression, self harm and bulimia.

I'm a 17 year old girl from North Yorkshire, England, UK. Who knew from such a young age with so much imagination and love for the world the one thing i would come to hate the most is myself! I'm truly not who i thought i'd turn out to be. I have suffered with self harm for nearly a year, never thought i would find such peace in something which is frowned upon so badly in society. It's a coping mechanism for myself. I was diagnosed with depression in February 2016 to this day where i still continue to suffer with self harm, bulimia and suicidal thoughts.
