druidspell: Never give anyone to the monsters. It's a rule. (Monsters)
They say it gets better; sometimes it doesn't.

Today I told Fi (and Jay, and Tessa, and Das, and Rebekah, and Ria even though I ran out of characters before I could mention her) that they saved me. And in a big way, that's true.

I've been suffering from major depression for close to 18 years. I was 10 the first time I tried to divide up my property (Bridgette, Jeanna and Maria were getting most of my stuff) in the closest approximation I could manage to a Last Will and Testament. When I was 11, I started thinking of ways to kill myself.
Edited to cut for the sake of trigger warnings--the rest of this post contains talk that may be triggery for: Suicidal thoughts/actions; Self-harm. )
druidspell: Wicked girls saving ourselves (Frankie)
Okay, I don't know how everyone else's days/weeks/months have been going, but I know that I need some love on my flist today.
So I'm totally going to steal [livejournal.com profile] skoosiepants's love list, make my own, and encourage (read: beg/plead/demand/whatever will get you to post your love list in comments) you to post your list of things you love in comments whenever you stumble across this on your flist.

ETA: You know what, the internet needs love. So. I'm making this public.
I will also periodically update this list, which was started in June of 2007.

So. the List of Laura's Loves:
I, Laura, love... )
