i've been doing good enough i suppose. i get into sad lad moods at times or really late at night at random times, but other than that it's been a lot better than others out there, so i can't complain too much. anyways... it's good to hear you won the shirt war this time mongo. bright colors are awesome unless it's like neon yellow. then you look like a highlighter. that's not awesome. happy to have you with us too eli. idr who you are on discord (my memory is really ass sometimes) but you're a cool cat and a dope dawg. hope school stuff works out for you wook and hope you dont have to deal with tons of "bad"/"troublesome" kids this year. It's okay to feel sad sometimes. Just know you're a great guy, Kira, and you matter to all of us.

Talking about stuff that burdens you is important.
Do not forget that we are social animals.
Choose the one you are talking to. It is important that you feel at ease and understood, when you are talking about something important to you.
Sadly enough, we have become an individualistic society. But there are people out there who can listen and want to listen.
Talk to them.
If you do not like to talk to proffesionals, talk to simple people who are willing to listen and share their experiences with you.

Content warning ahead. Gonna be talking about the same kinda stuff. {Spoiler}Earlier this week, I cut myself three times on the forearm with a kitchen knife. I did it once on Monday then twice on Tuesday. I started out of a mental break and almost instantly got addicted to doing it because it felt like a stress reliever, but I stopped after the second time where my arm was cut BAD and I realized what I was doing to myself.
I called the suicide prevention hotline. As those two nights were the first time I didn't just think about possibly ending it, but a part of me was starting to see it as an actual option. Talked to people I love. Looking for a therapist to talk to.
It's hard. It's really fucking hard. I've dealt with depression since middle school and have done my best to bottle up those feelings until they finally bit me in the ass- but I'm still here, and I'm still holding on. I have people that care about me. I'm learning how to care more for myself and be honest with my emotions. It's a struggle, but like you said, beating those urges and learning to accept and love yourself is more than enough. I've started being much more productive and have spent less time wasting away in bed. I'm trying, you're trying too. And that in itself is a achievement.
Stay strong, Kris. <3 ...more of the same subject. {Spoiler}I know how that feels, Chao--to get back on that wagon after being off it for so long. Before the night I almost died, I had gone without self-harm for years, but then the person who has been at the root of all of the trauma that brought about my borderline personality disorder topped herself in regards to the shit she did to me and it just... something inside of me bsnapped,for lack of a better word, like when you bend a young tree branch until it breaks. My biggest difficulty in dealing with the aftermath is that I basically had to cut off the entirety of my mother's side of the family for my own sanity, which has left me feeling isolated in a lot of ways since my father's side of the family is good, but there's not very many people on it. Add onto that how I already self-isolated when things went South for me mentally and... yeah.
My counselor's a good one--I found him through accident, actually? Funny story, that one--and I've been doing my best to work with him and to try to be more honest about my mental health. It's never going to be destigmatized if people aren't brave enough to be honest, and I really appreciate the fact that you were brave enough to be honest. ♥
If you need someone to talk to when the shadows seem like they're longer than they ought to be and the minutes stretch into empty forever, just give me a nudge, okay?
