Love you all! I had zero experience with SI until about 20 years, ago, when I met a young woman who was struggling with it. I actually managed to help her begin to see someone, and I shared much of my life story with her in order to win her confidence and help her know I would support and love her, without every judging will.

I did those things, and she came to know me almost better than I knew myself, and we loved one another. When life took is different directions, she took a piece of my heart with her. I wouldn't have had it any other way, though, and I send all of you lots of and good energy

Thank you. Self harm is such an isolating experience. It is nice to hear how you helped this young woman. HUGS to you, Kit
