I'm going to go with suicide depending on the circumstances. I know that my own attempts were pretty selfish and I'd have been leaving a lot of people with unbearable emotional agony. I think in some cases it can be okay, for example: if you're dying of a terminal illness that will first see you physically paralysed and unable to talk. (Fully aware of how hypocritical I sound already!) Since I've posted a link to my recovery blog on here, I'm not going to hide the fact that I'm a constant self-harmer and have been since I was 9. I don't harm so much anymore, although I don't just harm via methods of cutting / burning and would consider behaviour like purging a form of self harm. I guess it's an overly sensitive topic, but I also believe things like DSH are overlooked far too much in society. I'm often made to feel ashamed of my self harm, especially when I've had to go to A&E because I've cut my right arm and can't stitch with my left. The nurses are very patronising and judgemental - it doesn't really bother me too much when I come to remember that they're meant to be treating 'accidents' and 'emergencies', of which I am neither when it comes to self harm. It's an interesting topic to discuss. I've actually just posted pictures on my blog of my DSH to remind myself that I'll achieve nothing but the promise of a nasty scar by taking a sharp instrument or flame to my self. Edit: Feel free to ask questions, by the way. I'm willing to talk about it if anyone's interested.

I f**king love this.

"It looks hot."

I get internal server error when I try to load The Sun now

Only until Friday, and then I'm pretty much internetless until I can somehow find it in me to pay for broadband.

I want to make babies with this bike.

What is this f**kery?

No idea. All I know is he came up on the side bar and it made me chuckle.

IT'S A CONSPIRACY.

Heh, Mark Zuckerberg has a G+ account.

@hshucksmith I post a little less bollocks than on Facebook; still, bollocks all the same.

I think it's got potential, but Facebook will still rule. Facebook caters for everyone. If you don't want to see certain apps, posts or people then you just hide them and see what you want to see. Google+ seems to be quite Twitter-esque to me, just with added extras.

This. Am right handed as well.

Hmm. I'd have to say one a day. If I'm 'bingeing' I mix my drinks anyway and 7 glasses of wine would still see me reaching for spirits.

Is there wine?! D:

"I confirm that I am over the age of 16 years" and "I have read and agree to the terms and conditions" are the biggest internet lies ever told, you silly bean.

Who said anything about girls?

I WANT AN INVITE D:

About an 8 right now. Taking a few days away from my flat at a friend's house. Chilling on the sofa with a laaavely brew, talking things through and making plans for the next few months. On a bigger scale, my mum's ill health is taking a turn for the better, I'm hopefully back in college in September, I'm no longer under the care of the Crisis team (yay, achievement!) and I'm generally a happier bunny these past few days. Oh, and I just hit 3,000 blog followers. Score.

I'm on PinkBike and Suicide Forum a fair bit.

Nothing is impossible, the word itself spells "I'm possible". The past is a guidepost, not a hitching post.

I'm deemed too 'mentally unfit' to work right now and I've got very severe insomnia. I have a lot of time on my hands.

I've got a Tumblr to post all of my mental health related crap on. It helps to me express what I feel, to let those close to me know what I'm going through without sitting them down and not knowing what to say, and to track my mood so I can recognise when I'm going suicidal or manic. Other than that, it's just full of generic teenage crap and me moaning about how shit my life is. Click me!
