Self Introduction

Hi guys. I’m new to this and don’t really know what I’m doing but I thought I’d try it out anyway. So for a while now I’ve been super down and struggling with basically everything. This has happened before but I’m not sure it’s ever been this bad. Lately I’ve been thinking about self harm and despite not wanting to admit I have an actual problem, I finally did tonight. It felt horrible but amazing at the same time. It’s like I’ve been trapped for all this time putting on a fake face and finally I’m not scared to admit I am depressed and I want to get better. I know that doesn’t just fix all of my problems tho. I spend tonight and many nights recently crying and just feeling alone. I’ve been trying to make plans all the time and have as little alone time as possible in order to not feel so bad but recently that hasn’t been working anymore. I still feel alone even when I’m with others and just feel like no one understands me. I’ve been letting this disease take over my life and my mind for far too long now and I want to finally be myself again. When looking up ways to get better and heal this website popped up. I thought I’d try it out because why not. If any of you would like to share your stories like this or just say anything, I’d really appreciate it. Thanks for taking the time to read this and I hope things are going well for all of you:)
