An Update After A Long Time

Hello everyone,

I am sorry that I have been neglecting my blog but my life has been like a roller-coaster.
I have been having good and bad days. Recently in August I turned 18 so I was discharged from CAMHS because they don't go up to 18 but they have referred me to the AMHS so hopefully I should be accepted to the adult team where I can get support because my self harm has become worse again because I felt so down when I left CAMHS as they have been my life saver since the age of 14 so I felt like I have lost my support network. 

On a more positive note I have been helping my friend who also has mental health needs, so I have been helping her because my psychiatrist said it would help me, whatever strategies I tell my friend to do e.g. listen to music instead of self harming- the strategies which I tell my friend to use my psychiatrist said I should use them. 

I hope to update my blog more often.

Love From Meera xx

Such A Long Time

Hello everyone, 

I know I have been neglecting my blog which I am sorry about. The last few months have been full of ups and downs. Yesterday was the worst as an adult who I know from a group I go to said to me "Oh teenagers shouldn't be depressed, you have nothing to be depressed about." The adult then started asking me oh how did you get depressed and kept on asking me till I answered him, this made me end up having some really bad flashbacks- I could see the abusive emails so clearly in my head which I had when I was in Year 11. 

Apart from yesterday I have had a good start to May and hope it will carry on like that. 
Have a lovely day enjoying the sunny weather and I will try to update later in the week. 

Love From Meera xx
