CW for mental health, suicide

I was extremely anxious and depressed in school. I tried to kill myself rather than go to school many times. I skipped school a lot because I saw it as the only way to save my life.

Nice to know that if I lived in the UK and was in school a few years later, the government would have just robbed my parents of all their money. I'm sure coercing a depressed teenager into a place that makes them suicidal by threatening their parents financial stability couldn't go wrong

self harm

I remember one time in elementary school I was sitting at the foot of my bed hitting my ankle with a baseball hoping I would get injured so I wouldn't have to go to school. I wasn't even bullied or anything, I just really, really didn't want to go. Never brought it up, nobody ever saw. Still had to go to school.

I've also started mentioning it now that I'm an adult. Never got a reaction more than "huh, interesting" though I feel like that was a super fucked up moment.

I'd sleep with windows open and no blanket just so I could get sick and stay home. On the plus side I am now very hearthy!
