My name is Makenna. I am 17. I have been dealing with self harm, suicide, and eating disorders for the past 6 years. I have been in and out of hospitals as well as long term residential treatment. I just got released from treatment in Utah that I was at for 18 months. Since I got out I have been struggling to do good. So yeah... that’s me..

Sounds like you're working really hard on yourself, I admire you. I am 26 and have never had any kind of formal treatment for my depression. I bet you have been taught some really good tools to help you work through your thoughts and emotions, I would utilize those tools to the best of your ability when you feel like you're struggling. You sound smart and self aware, which are two powerful gifts. Give yourself credit, you're doing the work. I think sometimes even allowing ourselves as girls to feel like we deserve a happy and full life is hard because we're torn down most of our lives and picked apart by a harsh and judgemental society. But you deserve to be happy, you are gifted, unique and capable. Congrats on finishing your 18 months, I know it wasn't easy, but you're here ☺. Hope you have some easier days ahead of you.
