Description When you look into the mirror
See that person staring back
You know that it's not who you were
And slowly start to crack
That person has become you
You can feel it in your veins
The moment overtakes you
And to take away your pain...

You hate the person you've become
But there's nothing left to do
The nightmare's just beginning so
You have to see it through
The pain you're feeling has to end
Everyone around you lied
It consumes your very mortal soul
It burns you deep inside...

So reach for the vodka
Reach for the blade
Knock back yet another shot
Without the lemonade
Apply the pressure, break the skin
You're going round the bend
Feel the blood rush from within
This torture has to end...

You slowly crawl back to your bed
And cover up the stains
Noisy voices in your head
Distract you from the pain
You don't know what's worth living for
Or why you're still alive
You wish the pain would go away
You wish that you would die...

So reach for the vodka
Reach for the blade
Knock back yet another shot
As if it's lemonade
Apply the pressure, break the skin
You're going round the bend
Feel the blood rush from within
The cycle doesnt end...

I did it without the vodka though. I felt more pleasure in it without anything that numbs my senses.

Very intense, actually the first one today that moved something inside me. The tragic thing is that at that point you have no hope really, it just gets more and more messed up every day. I know it. 


To all that read and are in need; I wish you a miracle. Something from the outside that would change the way you live and perceive yourself. Your life is the one and only, we shouldn't lose it to delusions and impossible pursuits, self-hate and isolation that come from those.

  I have been self harming for almost a year... It has had its really bad moments and some not so bad but now I have scars I can never get rid of.... I am trying to stop, but it is sooo hard. Its been two weeks since the last time but im starting to want to give in.

You can stop doing it, whatever you are feeling you can stop, i have been suffering from severe depression for 5 years now and ive been 6 months without attacking myself! but it is hard especially when u feel that it is the only answer. I got over it by being happy, going out, spending time with people who meant it to me.. I went to psychiatrists etc but they didnt help, ive been to the doctors but he told me that i am attention seeking, im not!! but trust me, i have every strength in you that in time u will see a different side to your blade xx

I know, it's incredibly hard. But it's possible, trust me. I was clean for months. It's just a relapse, it's natural.

I relapsed recently. About a week ago? I'm not sure. My parents dont know. I'm scared that I'll do it again and that they'll find out.

Posthardcorelife In reply to The-Pink-Bunny262 [2013-09-20 13:00:47 +0000 UTC]

That sucks, mine don't know either. I have no intent on telling them. But it's ok, we'll get through it.

They Know I self harm, but they think I've been clean all this time and the truth is i haven't.... Do you really think we'll get better? You kniw i get scared sometimes because there are times when i dont want to get better... that scares me >.<

I believe we'll get better. Well get better eventually. Trust me. I believe in you and I know you're strong enough to get through this.

You don't know how much that means to me. Thank You, but do you really think we'll get better?... Do you think it's bad to like  your scars?... My previous boyfriend thought i was crazy because I loved my scars... same with my parents. They look at my scars with disgust. They hate the word self harm and cutting.

I don't think it's bad to love them, because they're a part of you. If you love them you love yourself.
