i actually feel really good 2day. yesterday for some reason me and my mom had a long talk about my panic attacks and about cutting. we talked about my medicine and everything. i was completely honest about it all. it felt so good to explain. im begining to think everyhing will be alright.

advice for talking to ur parents, or whoever?? just be completely honest. tell them the truth whether they want to hear it or not. it actually worked for me. i didnt think it would.

but im doing so good today. i finally realized that my sleeping pills were antidepressants too. i didnt know it and went off them cus i had a hard time waking up. i spiraled out. wont make that mistake again.

Good for you! It's definetely hard the first little bit so good going getting that far. explained cutting to my mom ( and other daily news)

Also, that's fantastic that you were able to talk to your mom - I still haven't, and I dont think I ever will.

Take care!
