My right to Grieve
Watch this 
View More Posts Ignore
My dad died three months ago. We didnt have a good relationship. I have alot of upside down things in my life right now including my entire family grieving(by being angry). I havent si'ed in over 9 years now. Lately i have wanted to very badly. I know if i self harm I will feel better immediately, and also worse. This year I have lost Lacy(see my journals)and daryl and my father. I am determined to grieve as much as i have to and not si. I refuse to give in. I am hurting and lonly and sad and even angry sometimes and really messy. Is this a topic? I dont know and I dont care. I will read whatever any of you have to say. I do not have to si no matter how much I want to, Just wanting to is bad enuff. Today was hard for me.

" wow losing that many people in a short space of time must be really tough. Make sure you get support from a councellor, this would be hard enough for a non-self harmer to go through. "
