I Was Going to Self-Harm

Do You Struggle With Self-Harm Like Lucy?

Lucy wrote to us at TheHopeLine® about a chat she had with a HopeCoach. 

I was about to self-harm and I didn’t know where to turn so I went on here (TheHopeLine.com/gethelp) and this girl, a HopeCoach named Emily, talked with me. I was going to cut myself that day and she talked me out of it. I was lucky that she was there because when I cut myself it was bad. I’m clean now and its all thanks to her.

A special thanks to Emily and TheHopeLine®!

  1. Hey Lily, I was cutting too. But I did stop too, you are very pretty I can’t understand why but hey you can’t judge a girl by her smile. Girls can be read through their eyes, the pain is always there. I’m glad you are better and HopeLine has helped me too.
