yes, getting the hurt out is one way to look at it
i dunno how to handle these girls because this stuff is sensitive to them... but i think they need to be shown that they are beautiful... with proof... not just told, because they wont believe it...
i know how you feel about the memory... im 26 years old, but my memory is not working at all... the psychological assesment i took in feb. said that i have a clinically impaired cognitive organization functioning or something like that... i forget everything, i cant reemember my past.. cant remember this morning... i forget what im saying alot of the times or what im thinking or what im doing... it sucks...
sometimes we dont have to write elegantly to reach someone... sometimes no words are stronger than all the words... we just have to show them...
also, dont try to self harm please... its not worth it, try to do someting creative... write a poem even if you arent good at it, write a short story, draw a picture even if you cant draw... listen to music... cook a meal, anything that you can transfer emotions into... the self harm is an addictive behavior that spirals out of control very fast...
