If I could add my story to your web page...

I'm a 15 year old girl I started self harming about a year ago at school when I couldn't handle life anymore and I had alot of anxiety and stuff. And it all got out of hand it just started with little scratches with pencil sharpener blades no one noted that I did it all the time about a month later I started using razor blades the cuts got deeper and more often I just used to put bandaids over them. Then my friends found out and told the school councillor. She spoke to me about it a lot. Then mental health got involved and my parents found out they weren't happy. This social worker started seeing me it got that bad I was admitted to a mental ward, I stayed there for a while then things were still going down. I got discharged only for about a month then the social worker said I was a harm to myself I went back nothing changed I sat in the corner and cried Ii didn't eat I didn't talk I just cried then I went to see a shrink he said I have server depression and severe anxiety and a mild eating disorder.Ive tried to commit suicide several times I still want to die but its kinder impossible as im in a institution at the moment because im still a harm to myself. The only reason im writing this is because I want all the other depressed people around that they are not alone and if they need someone to talk to email me I check it when I can.
