Ramy

Try to remember some things take time, sometimes a long time, I am an ex self harmer, something i did from aged 11. i stopped 9 years ago now but the thoughts still niggle at me, especially in times of stress, I am still finding out about me even after all these years and it’s hardwork ignoring all those nasty voices.
some days i fly and some days i sink but i look at myself on that day and know i am still better than i used to be and i keep going keep trying.
Try to stop seeking an ultimate goal of happiness, stop expecting instant results and just focus on your day to day progress.
I always remember that a wound heals but it leaves a scar and that scar takes time to fade if at all.
You are doing great, keep telling yourself that and keep going.
