HAPPY BIRTHDAY.
So sorry the "Happy" part isn't exactly there, but thought I would start with a birthday wish anyway. I can relate.. as I have had some pretty terrible birthdays.. I don't have any friends either... It's hard. But hey, we can celebrate here if you'd like! I'm so sorry to hear that you were feeling so bad that you turned to SI. I am in recovery from SI and so just really want to tell you that you CAN stop it now. It's very addicting, and the more you do it, the more you will generally want to do it. I really hope that this will be your first AND last time SI'ing. Please feel free to message me or reply here if you'd like to chat... even though I don't know you, I do care and don't want you to spend your birthday alone and depressed!
