I need to let myself free

Last 5 years have been rough , i did punish myself a lot in these years from drugs to self harm, even suicidal at times but i need to make peace with myself right now. Whatever happened back then was out of my control and there was nothing much i could back then but what I do from on onwards is in my hands . If i stay the same way things are going to get worse and i can’t let my mind destroy myself. If she wasn’t meant to be one surely someone else is going to replace her when I’m ready to take the responsibility. I know this might not be easy but i have to start it from somewhere,so let it be from today. I’m going to free myself from the shackles …
My story isn’t over I’m not gonna give up like this.
This place has been amazing,thanks for all the unconditional love and support.

Really really proud of you! It’s not easy to pick yourself up and be determined to push forward. It’s easier to carry the past with us and blame all the shit for the hand we are given and to dwell in it.
The past certainly is that, and while we can acknowledge it from time to time, it’s important to let it be the fuel that drives us forward.

Hey Friend, Thank you for posting again, wow this feels so much more uplifting than your last post. I am really proud of how you have thought about the changes that have happened and how you can indeed move forward and you are even having thoughts about the possibility of one day meeting someone else and it not being a big deal. You are right, that was out of your control and it certainly is now, no one can change the past but you can certainly have control over your future and you seem to be on the right path to making it your own. I have real faith in you that you will do well. you know you have us to turn to. Much Love Lisa. x
