To open up about your past takes great courage and strength, especially when it's one like this. I appreciate you sharing part of your story with us. I agree with the other comment, you should try channeling your emotions into your writing more and maybe it'll help you to get rid of your habits. I know what's it's like to be there, and I know it hurts but, believe me, it's only a chapter in your journey to becoming the great person you're meant to be. Stay strong, Madison.

It is good that you got it off your chest in writing. You should try venting your emotions in it more. It may help out to stop cutting yourself. I know it stopped me when I was your age. Stay strong and move forward. When you are at your worst only the better is up ahead.
