But I did. The first aid supplies holding my arm in place are testament to this. It hurts, of course it does, but it feels like a deserved hurt - a hurt that I've earned. I feel sick, and probably sound it too, but at the same time I feel calm - because I have quelled the beast inside and fed to him his ritual serving of blood, until the next time.
I feel devoid of an identity today, lacking in direction. Christianity today is a distant hope, and happiness a far-fetched dream. Dutifully I came into college today, wrapped up like an eskimo.

Niki, if I could hold you and give you a big hug now I would - so please hug yourself. You're brave for talking about it.
I am hoping you do have someone to talk to in real life, to walk with you and help put this beast to bed so you don't feel the need to hurt yourself.
Good on you for getting up and going into college - you know you can overcome this.
And Happiness and Christianity - sometimes I feel as if both are like water seeping through cracks - we don't always have to go looking for them because they seep in when we're not looking.
Take care x
*hug*
