I'm proud of myself for getting to where I am, and for surviving through this pandemic better than I could have ever imagined. A couple years ago and I would have been inconsolable and the feelings of loneliness would have probably eaten me up, but today I can stand on my own 2 feet and make it through. Sometimes you miss the progress in your recovery due to the gradual process, and keeping this website has really helped me to monitor my recovery over the past 6 years.
I started this website as I had no other outlet from my darkest moments and fears. The stress of GCSEs was eating at me, and my low self esteem was struggling, and looking back on those posts I can feel how far I've come. I still have a long way to go, but I'm so happy that I am on my way there, and I can see the distance I have already travelled.
