~Not Good Enough, by Kirsten
This is something I’ve seen done a few times before, but I really felt the need to do my own version. Everything written on my body is something that I have been called in my life, either by myself, or by someone else.
I have dealt a lot with bullying, depression and many mental problems for most of my life. While I won’t bore you with the specifics, I have been close to suicide a few times. Depression is something that always stays with you, almost in a way that you’re a recovering addict. You never know when you can relapse back into that state of mind, and it’s a constant battle. I am very lucky to have had my friends and my mom to help me deal with this though. They mean the world to me and they are still helping me, even today.
I have chosen now to use my art to help me cope instead of hurting myself.
Self harm and suicide is Never the answer. If you are suffering from suicidal thoughts, or self harm. Please talk to someone, whether it be a family member or friend. There are people who care. Please know that. You are not alone. Nothing is ever worth ending your life over.
