Welcome to my blog,
You wont know me and my story unless you have seen my YOUTUBE. My name is Amy, I'm 16 and i have suffered with bullying and problems in school. As a result of this i became volatile and my angry increased considerably. I also started self harming one year after the bullying stopped. I have suffered from self harm for one year and started my recovery on the 8th august 2011.
I strive for acceptance and that has caused me to become extremely low in confidence and i have low self esteem and self worth. I also have a fear of failure, so bad i predict i will fail my A-LEVELS before i am even done with my GCSE's. I hate trying anything new unless i know i wont fail, but in order to build confidence, then new things must be explored! I have huge anxiety problems, even so, i fear to move out the house because i fear i will do something 'wrong' or embarrass myself. In all seriousness, realistically what are the chance of me doing something wrong, by wrong i mean fall over and things like that.
Earlier this year i began making videos on YouTube about self harm and mental health, my opinions and my life in general along with daily struggles i face. I thought i wouldn't get many subscribers but my list is growing, 10 more to go before i get 100. I wanted to make videos on YouTube because i felt isolated and alone at home. In some respect, i isolated myself by becoming withdrawn and i would stay in my room for hours on end.
My YouTube is, at present, made up of videos of self harm advice and experiences, vlogs and random videos. If you like you can CHECK MY YOUTUBE OUT!
I hope you enjoy reading my posts. If you have time plaes look at my youtube or any other social networking sites i am apart of. These are listed in the side bar!
Good luck in life,
Amy.
