Answer:

Awh, that’s really nice of you and good for her! Maybe just a card that says you’re there for her through this, and her favorite junk-food?

Anonymous Asked: "I don't think you've already answered this. Is restricting calories because you feel like you deserve to feel sick and dizzy in the ED category or the self-harm category or... we're not talking about being under weight or even doing it to lose weight, but rather because it seems good to punish yourself. Because it somehow feels good to make yourself sic."

Answer:

Yes, this is still considered self-harm.

lilliththelastseal Asked: "I've been clean of cutting for five years now. My mother has recently decided that I can't go visit a friend from college that I may not see for about another year, and she is my best friend ever. Tonight, after learning this, I really want to cut, just to say "ha, mother, if you want to hurt me, you can't. Only I will hurt myself." I don't know who to talk to about this...I've also been thinking of purposely crashing my car to go to the hospital tonight."

Answer:

Please, do not injure yourself. This is a temporary (even if a year long) problem.

I just hurt so badly. Tomorrow will be 6 months cut free for me. I love my life and I'm not scared anymore. I stopped crying for awhile too. But now my anxiety is coming back crazier than ever. I panic at the littlest things, and I've started crying nightly again. It's summer. WooHoo. Btw, love your page and everything on it<3"

Congratulations, Cassie! Thank you for stopping by and sharing your success with us! <3

1 in 5 teenagers have thought about suicide, about 1 in 6 teenagers have made plans for suicide, and more than 1 in 12 teenagers have attempted suicide in the last year. As many as 8 out of 10 teenagers who have commited suicide tried to ask for help in some way before committing suicide. Reblog this if you’re always here to listen.
