It’s easy to buy the lie that says we’re alone, that says we can’t talk about these things, the reality is people need other people, and it’s okay to be honest. We all struggle from time to time we all need help sometimes. So everyone in this room to everyone at home, it’s our belief that you’re living a story, and it’s our belief that your story is sacred, and its priceless, and its entirely unique, and no one else can play your part, It’s our hope that you will never ever give up. — Jamie Tworkowski
“If you struggle with self-injury, you are not “a cutter”.

standcloser-getnervous:

You are a person. You are not only your pain. You are not only wounds and scars. You are also better things. You are possibility and promise, hope and healing, daydreams, favorite books and favorite songs. You are the people that you love and the people who love you. You are hope and change and things worth fighting for. This is all your story and your story isn’t over.”

Sometimes I just need to remember why I have those last four words tattooed on my arm.

Late last night, writer, husband, father, and brother John Moe posted a series of tweets. We don’t know him and he didn’t at-reply us, but he said a lot of true things, things we believe in, things he promised he would always remember to say after he lost his brother Rick to suicide in 2007, things we want to share with you. May this be a spark of hope for you today. Please read from the bottom of the tweets up to have the correct order.
