The goal for us to bring restoration back to your life. To bring hope, to show these feelings are just temporary.
We want to bring awareness to the topic of self-injury.People dealing with this are afraid to come out, to ask for help. Afraid to go to the school because they will contact their parents. Afraid of being sent to facilities, facilities that do not help anyone, often make it worse. This is a place we want people to feel safe to come to, that their information will all be confidential. We are here to love you! Not to judge you, The reply won't be as simple as, don't do it. But to be there for you, to be a friend. Someone to talk to about your stresses. Why you're sad , or turning to self injury. Our goal is to restore you. You were created to be loved. You were meant to live your life. Fully! To be happy. You're important, you're part of so many people. You can be made new again. Your life and happiness is worth fighting for. Not giving up.
Hope is real.
The hope is there.
This is not the end.
We are here.

God created you and said “it was good”.
So say it, and believe it yourself.

I liked someones post on Facebook this afternoon for someone to tell me “a word that describes me.”

The word they wrote was hysterical.

For those of you who don’t know what this word mean, here’s the definition.
unmanageable emotional excesses. People who are “hysterical” often lose self-control. (Wikipedia)

When I saw this my entire stomach sunk. And I began to sob. It absolutely killed me. And even worse someone liked it. Which only made me wonder how many people feel the same way. 

I eventually ended up just falling asleep because crying really exhausts me. When I woke up I just sat there and thought this..

People are going to say so many things to you. People that don’t even know you. They are going to assume things and they are going to hurt you. But so what. Keep moving forward, maybe you have fallen and some people can’t let it go and hold it against you. And maybe for some people thats what they will label you. But keep going, because a label means nothing. What people call you means nothing. But who you are means something. That strength you have in you means something.  

You are more than these words that people say. 

Don’t let anyone tell you different.
Don’t feel bad for who you are. You were made that way. Don’t feel bad for how you feel, for any pain you feel. Because it makes you grow. Don’t be ashamed of who you are because this world needs people like you. Don’t run from change, because change may be just what you need to get back up again.You’re beautiful, just the way you are.
