This year has changed me. For the worst or for the better, it has. I've harmed myself. Although it might seem bad, when I look at it now or when I see the scar on my wrist, I don't think "That scar is damn ugly af." I'm not romanticising self-harm in any way, but it just gives me hope.

The scar symbolises my pain. And when I see it fading I think about how I've gotten over it. Maybe with other problems I can too.

So if I had a choice, I would've never wanted for it to fade. It reminds me of how I was brave enough to continue, and for that I am proud.
