I'm Amy. This is all very triggering, so do not continue if you would be prone to such.
I found this on tumblr and it perfectly describes me:
"Are you happy?"
Its such a difficult question to answer.
I always say yes because I have friends,
I laugh at jokes,
I have fun,
my life isn't as bad as it could be,
I don't have terrible problems, it could be worse.
But then at night at 3am,
when I'm alone and still awake,
lying in bed thinking about life,
I find myself crying my heart out.
Suddenly I convince myself that nobody likes me,
no one will ever like me.
I feel horribe and question everything.
And I don't know if I was ever happy at all.
So then the bad part of my brain started to take over.
And I needed something sharper.
So I took the blade out of a sharpener and the cuts began to stay.
I'm sorry because of the reasons on my skin.
But I tell myself they're true and cover my legs in cuts.
And once when I was walking across the road,
I saw a car coming towards me.
I looked at it and thought of the sweet release it would give.
And I didn't have a bad part of my brain anymore,
Because the depression had taken over.
One little comment and the car racing towards me didn't frighten me,
So I walked towards the road and asked for it all to end.
And I wasn't scared to die.
