I was struggling with my mental health
,
About two years ago, I was struggling with my mental health. I was self-harming a lot and I was suicidal.
Around the same time, I attempted to take my life for the first time. After that, I was referred to child and adolescent mental health services where they diagnosed me with depression and anxiety disorder.
I also started to develop disordered eating patterns and perfectionistic traits which made my life harder.

My life ins't perfect but it's way better than it was! My parents were never there for me. When my past comes up my BF and partner helps me work through it.

I was slowly giving up. Ready to do something really stupid. By reading and getting advice I realised there are things I can do to overcome my problems.
