I haven't told this to many people at all, in fear I would get ridiculed.
Only a handful know... but I feel I should tell it. It has taught me to not act out rashly over stupid things. Well... here goes::

This happened a few months ago, when I was dating me ex-boyfriend. A lot of events were going on, finals growing closer, parents warning me about the consequences of dating a boy, and stuff I'd rather not mention just yet.
I got sick with the flu, so I was quite delusional and was entirely different. I couldn't think straight and pressure was just building up inside of me. All of the stress over the previous months.
Anxiety took me over and I hurt myself horribly... so bad that an ambulance had to come to my house. I feel stupid now that I look back on it. It had been worse than the other times; a when I say "other times" I mean back when I used to do self-mutilation. I've matured greatly this past year, but I could have been seriously injured from how I hurt myself. The doctor said he was surprised I didn't have internal bleeding.
Now, here I am... sitting here, thankful that my stupidity had not taken my life and thrown it away. I regret what I did, but out of it I learned a few lessons I will never forget.

We don't ridicule anyone here ^^
I'm really glad that you learned from your experience and that you're still alive. Now that you learned from your mistake, you know that you'll never have to go through that ever again.
Every person on Earth makes mistakes and does stupid things. So you're not alone. I'm not saying it's good to harm one's self. But we are all humans and to err is human.
Thanks for sharing your story with us!
We're here for you heart

Ugh. V__V;
*Nods along to story.*

Like all the survival stories, its painful and slightly upsetting.

I'm happy your one of the lucky ones.

Its interesting, isn't it, to still be here.
I still find it a tad bit eiree myself.
Its like I was granted a second chance after a trail in heaven...

Any way.

I'm happy you went ahead and shared with us. Its good to get to know you better, the good and the bad.
Please don't ever be afraid to tell me things or ask me things.

biggrin
Buddies for ever.

Yes... it does feel pretty awkward.
Sometimes I wonder if I should really be here, but I don't question it for long.
Thanks, Intro X]

Aww, Ashes. I'm really glad you're a survivor, otherwise I wouldn't've gotten the chance to meet you. :] heart And it's like they say: Live and learn.

And it's like someone had said somewhere else in the guild: Ashes reminds me of the Phoenix. You've experienced near death/momentary death/ a very difficult time for you and you've come back a new person, more mature. :]
