hey i'm new!

[Chloe21]

Hey

My name is Chloe and I'm new to this site. I've been through a lot of things and would like to share my experiences with people after hiding them for a long time.

I have an abusive relationship with my parents; for most of my life they have been emotionally abusive towards me and I have found this hard to deal with. I have had battles with self-harm; I had an addiction at one time which was difficult to overcome and although I feel now that I'm more in control I continue to have urges to harm myself. I also have problems with anxiety and feel as though I have to deal with everything by myself and be as strong as I can; I am a perfectionist and hate to admit that I have weaknesses; therefore I tend to bottle things up and let things get out of control in my head.

I had a year of counselling which really helped me understand the feelings of panic I had and really helped me to see what an outsider thought of my relationship with my parents. This helped me a lot but I still feel lonely and unsure at times; often I feel as though I can't cope.

So that's me in a nutshell! That took a lot of guts so please be nice to me :)
