As You May Have Noticed...
As you may have noticed in the last while I have not been blogging all that much, the reason I am not so sure of but I think I have realized that the blogging has done me as much harm since I started as it has done good for others. I think as beneficial as it has been to others it is probable not the best idea to write down every though on the web that people that are close to you even people you thought where close to you can read, it is a scary thought knowing that people around you know so much about your life.
I started the blog as a positive step on my road through self harm and I am now at a point in my life where I think I have passed the harming phase, I have worked through a lot off issues in the last 8 months and resolved a lot of personal issues that have always held me back. I have been hurt and betrayed by people I thought close to me and now realize that they are the ones who obviously have there own issues that they have to live with and resolve.
In regards to the blog I am really not sure what to do, whether to just stop or keep going, at this point I am really not sure what else to say. I don't harm anymore so that means I have nothing to talk about on this topic anymore, I will have to give it some serious consideration over the next while.

I am sorry to hear that blogging has been harmful for you. Your blog to me was probally the most support I have received from one person, even though we never spoke. You know everybody says "you are not alone" but reading your blog just made that feel a little bit more true.
I just want to say that if you choose to not continue blogging that I appreciate what you did for me.
Thank you.
Hi
I think that the most important thing is that you don't self-harm anymore.
This is your blog and you will decide what to do by yourself, so I'm not going to give any unasked advice on that. Anyway, I'm just a phantom from the net.
Good luck.

I stumbled upon your blog, while trying to pass the night online . . . I have only just begun to read your entries, but I wanted to let you know that your blog feels like an enormous support.
I have not self harmed in a long time (at least six months, and probably only twice in the past year), but every once in awhile I find myself in a dark place and am fighting the temptation off.
It's great to know that I'm not alone.
I hope that if you decide to stop posting, that you do leave your old entries online for others to stumble upon. But, of course, you must do what's best for you.
