[glow=red,2,300]Welcome~![/glow]
Hello, and welcome to "You're Beautiful", a forum dedicated to helping any and everyone. We cover a broad range of people, from those who self-harm to LGBT, all coming from different religions, places, and ethnicities.
Here you can introduce yourself, and tell everyone a little bit about you, even post your picture, if you like!
But, even though we are here to help, and support venting, we have a few rules.
- Cussing and Cursing: Keep it to a minimum, unless posting in the Venting area. - We Accept Everyone!: Meaning, we promote tolerance, to all kinds of people. I don't want to see any fighting and arguing over religion, music groups, or art. This is a safe haven, for everyone, so keep the fighting out of the forum. If I see it, I'll give you a warning, but if it happens again, I'm afraid I'll have to ban you. - We Accept All Ages!: Don't post any really mature content, or at least put a warning in the title of your thread, such as: "My Story With Bullying (M Rated)" This will keep the thread safer for any younger viewers. Also, no vulgar pictures or videos. Keep this forum clean, please.
I think the rest is just simple. Post trigger warnings, for threads that have the potential to set someone off, just in case, and that's about all the rules for this area.
Also, in the other forums, if you want to post your story, or a longer post, it'd be best to create your own topic in the subforum.
Thank you! - Angelicdreams

Ah, so it seems like people are starting to post, so I'll post too. First off, Hi to everyone. And thanks for being here/ making this wonderful place happen. My name's Angie. Well, it's Angela, but I prefer to go by Angie. The reason why I'm here, I guess, is for some support that people at home aren't able to provide... so here I am. I feel like this will help me out somewhat, since maybe it could make me feel a little happier. People tell me that I'm negative, and it makes me upset when I know I'm trying really hard to be happy. I've thought about self harm and suicide, and I have no idea what's been holding me back. I like music and writing stories. The stories aren't too good though, so you won't be seeing them. Ah, I think that's all. Yeah.

It's alright if you aren't good at introducing yourself, all that matters is helping you get through your self harm issues. Have you tried the Butterfly Project yet?

Ah, I think that's all. Yeah. Hello Angie. I know how you feel, in a way. People say things to me and they don't realize it hurts. What do you mean by 'negative'? Do they mean that you dislike doing certain things, or sometimes shoot ideas down? And have you tried talking to your family about this, if so, what has your family done that makes you think that they aren't able to provide enough support?

They usually tell me that I'm just whining about things. However, It's not whining when I'm seriously telling them that they're bugging with me and making me feel terrible. I'm compared to my sisters or family members, and it hurts since I'm trying, and I really am trying my hardest to be what they want. We've sat down and had "family discussions". But those usually result in pointing fingers at me and things like "You. You are the problem." I don't want to be told that. Nobody wants to be told that. How could I ever think that they could support me when they're the ones making me feel so stressed and terrible? I'm not too sure. I act nice around them. I 'be happy' for them, but get shot down.

Yo... You can call me 'Emo', Not the word literally, Just the sound, like naming someone 'Hope' or 'Faith' I'm named my internet self 'Emo' which I've been going as for quite awhile now except for a few sites. I honestly didn't think about the name when I chose it. Anyhow, I'm really happy to join. I've gone through a lot of the same stuff, but I'm just the kind of person who's paranoid about everything so I probably won't say much unless something happens. I joined so I could use my experiences to help with others, maybe even actually help someone. So yep! [/font]

That is truly awful. Is there anybody in your family that you could seek help from? Grandparent, maybe an uncle or an aunt, a school counselor? Don't let them tell you that you are whining, because you're not. You are trying to speak out and tell them what's going on, but they refuse to listen. Also, push the self-harm and suicide thoughts away. If you choose self-harm, it won't get you anywhere.

Have you tried the Butterfly Project yet? No, actually.. I haven't. Alright. Head over to the thread "Self-Harm and Suicide" and click on "The Butterfly Project." Try it.

Don't be paranoid, AngelicDreams and I won't mind if you slip-up or anything. I'm glad that you'd like to help, go right ahead and talk to the others and offer some advice.

Ahoy, ahoy! My name is Tir, and I'm working on being more like a "normal" human being. It's a slow process, but this anxious, depressed, lethargic, biromantic doormat is getting back on her feet. I've been coming close to going back to self-harming myself and I've been doing a bit worse with two deaths in the family in two months. I'm much bolder on the Internet, in real life I'm the awkward kid. You could say I'm an old soul (I think I was either a Julia Sugarbaker clone or arsonist in a past life) trying to learn new tricks. I'm also guaranteed to solve any minor problem by turning it into a major disaster, but at least I'm leaving my mark on the world.

Get UN-close to doing self-harm, because it does nothing. We relate pretty well, I'm a very shy and awkward person in real life, yet I'm very excited and happy when I'm on the internet. People in my family say I was an old soul in a past life. Major disaster? Doesn't matter, because you're right. That's your special mark on the world.

I know that some of them are genuinely wanting to help, but it won't work out that well anyways. My Aunts and Uncles are very dedicated to my parents. And, I know it could help me, but the school counselor will invite my family to share my thoughts with. It's a vicious cycle. Perhaps I'll go vent it out on the other thread.

Vent your heart out, it will help release stress and depression.
