It's Suicide Awareness Month 🌷 In 8 days I will officially be 2 years clean from self-harm 🙏 The past three years have been extremely challenging for me. I battled depression and suicide day in and day out. I felt hopeless and worthless and without purpose. I finally accepted that I needed help, despite not wanting it at the time, and am so proud to look back at where I was and compare it to where I am now. Depression ruined my life, but I was able to slowly piece it back together little by little. I conquered one of the biggest demons I've ever faced. It's not always perfect. I still have days where I feel depressed, but rather than suppressing that sadness I let it run its course because I've learned that
✨ it's ok not to be ok all of the time ✨
I'm thankful to those who stood beside me through the episodes and hospitalizations.
