Hey! This episode was pretty serious but I think it's really important to normalize talking about things like this so that people who are struggling feel like it's safe to talk about what they're going through. Self-harm is seen as part of the darker part of mental illness, so there are still so many things left to learn about it. I sincerely apologize if any of my words triggered any urges, please please please stay safe. I'm still learning about this topic, even though I've had my own experience with it. If you're struggling with self-harm, I want you to know that you hold so much strength and we're so proud of you. I'm glad you're still here. If you need to talk or vent, I really recommend checking out the Discussions tab on our website, maybe you'll get the advice that you've been looking for! Take care of yourself today:)
Hey guys! Today's episode is about my experience with the dreadful thing that is social anxiety.

I'm proud of you, never forget your worth, and keep fighting. Enjoy!
