Another vulnerable episode for me but I have had 4 years worth of experience of trying to recover from self-harm and i want to share my wisdom with those who need it, particularly if you don't have access to DBT.

Attempting to recover from self-harm is one of the most challenging things l've ever undertaken, I am still trying to this day! I may as well put it on my CV as a special skill. But every hurdle I get over I learn a new lesson. You are too hot and sexy to hurt yourself people.

In this ep I talk about honest truths, figuring out why, recovery isn't linear, and my coping mechanisms. I know this is a niche so I have got multiple upcoming ep's planned to move away from mental illness rhetoric and promise not to bore people with self harm for 6 months now.

DISCLAIMER: As usual, I am not a professional. this is my personal experience and as I mention over and over again everyone who suffers with self harming should reach out to a medical professional. Helpful links in the description of episode 2.

Kisses,
