Trigger Warnings. Wait, this isn't a trigger warning, its ABOUT them.

But I guess you can put a trigger warning on this if you like.

It's 1:03am, and I'm awake, unlike the rest of my house. I'm alone. It does not matter what website I read 'this' from.

All you need to know is the following:
There is a post about self harm. I used to self harm, and I haven't in 3 months. This is something I don't talk about. I'm not around websites or blogs that talk about self harm often. I saw a picture once, with a trigger warning. I'm now going to tell you what the image was of. It was of a girl's legs, with scars completely covering them. I wasn't fazed by this, so I thought I wasn't bothered with these things.

Now, I read this post about a girl who cut her arms, and I'm almost in tears. I want to cut myself, and this is the first time I've wanted to in three weeks. If my room wasn't in shambles, (I actually don't know what that means, so if I've got the wrong word, sorry) and I had no way of getting to a razor, I don't know if I'd have any strength,

Trigger warnings are ALWAYS needed.
