June 30th, 2025, marked 18 months, or 1 year and 6 months, or 548 days of being free from self-harm.

Who stands up for herself who uses coping mechanisms to get thru urges that knows right from wrong that tried her best for friends and knows when she needs a break she’s growing into a person who would’ve protected her as a child and that’s the strongest move she’s ever made
