Self harm/depression quotes

chapter*4

There is a girl

She doesn't know how to handle things

Everything is spiralling out of control

Sometimes she can convince herself she's not really alive

Maybe she is in a nightmare

And she just can't wake up

You would never guess her secret if you knew her

She hides it so well

She seems so happy

Do you want to know the secret?

She cuts herself

She doesn't know why

And she doesn't understand why she resolved to it

But one thing she does know

She cant stop

But why

When she feels out of control

Overwhelmed with emotion

Cutting helps her calm down and able to think

But at the same time

When she feels so numb

Empty

Cutting helps her feel alive even for a minute

She didn't have an easy childhood

There were always arguments

Always giving

Never receiving

And she never felt good enough

Important enough

Who would care if I self harm?

Everyone's better off without me

That's what she told herself each day

She was everything she despised

Sometimes she would sit in her room crying

A razor blade in her hands at the ready

Hearing the laughter from downstairs

She'd never felt more alone

And yet no one noticed?

She just wanted a hug

Someone to love her and tell her everything's going to be okay

And that they care

So why didn't they?

Sometimes she thought about dying

Just taking a load of pills

And ending everything

She would never do it but sometimes she really wanted to

Who would care after all.... right?

She was only 12

A lonely and misunderstood girl

By the time she was 13

Her body was covered in scars and cuts

She just wanted to be loved

Was that too much to ask?

She always tried to be everyone else's idea of perfect

That she completely lost who she was

She lied to her friends and family

Just so she wouldn't see the tears of disappointment in their eyes

She wanted to someone to understand

To care

But it didn't happen

Who knows if she ever escaped from self harm?

Who knows if anyone ever cared for her?

One day you might even realise you've known her all along

That bubbly girl who tells you her cat scratched her

Could be hiding it all under a smile

She wants someone

Needs someone

There's a girl

Do you want to know her secret?

She self harms

So help her

Cause that's all she wants

Needs

Can you guess who she is?
