I am 19 and have a history of experiencing domestic violence, self harm and drug/alcohol addiction. I am now leading a safe and reasonably healthy lifestyle - 3 years clean offf drugs, i don't self harm any more and am a lot more positive than i used to be but i still feel that i have a lot of issues that i am carrying around with me.
I have 12 GCSEs and 4 NVQs, as well as being a trained hair extensionist so i have intelligence but my past
Some days, someone has to say something i take to heart or something minor goes wrong and i'm bursting into tears! I am irritable most of the time and think a lot of negative thoughts. I have feelings of sadness, guilt and anger.
I find it hard to talk to family as i don't want to worry them any more than i have done already in the past.
I am trying so hard to pull myself together but at the moment all i can seem to do is sleep, eat and smoke!!! I know that its not the answer!!
Has anyone felt the same as me before? :-) :-) :-)
