See that scar on my left arm?
⠀
It happened in January 2014 - it was self-inflicted.
⠀
I’ve never talked about this topic openly on social media before (I do get asked pretty much everyday on instagram). I think it was both something I wasn’t ready to accept, and something that was simply difficult to talk about. I also don’t recognize those actions as something I would EVER do in the present day, so it’s rather hard to comprehend.
⠀
But life’s too short. Besides, maybe this will help break a few boundaries + stigmas?
⠀
Not gonna lie, my scars do still make me emotional at times (the rest are on my upper thigh). It’s tough to be reminded of that dark chapter of my life each time I wear a tank top. I’ve thought about covering them with tattoos later down the line, so that they can symbolize something positive (a recurring theme in my recovery).
⠀⠀
But for now they are there. And this scar in particular marks the last time I ever self harmed.
⠀
I think that’s all I have to say about that - it’s a part of me that doesn’t strip the value from my life. I’ve moved on and I’m a very happy person now - I just wanted to share this part of my past, while knowing it plays no role in who I am today???? ⠀

(ps: I’m still pretty sensitive about this topic so please don’t ask me how/why it happened. I will say that my tendency to self-harm was directly tied to anorexia. it was a very toxic cycle that I won’t get in. But once anorexia was conquered, so was every other associated demon)
