Today marks three years without cutting. In two months, it will be the longest period without it in my adult life.
I'm not the person I want to be, but I thank the gods that I'm not the person I was ten or fifteen years ago. Cutting is something that has been difficult to let go, but medication and the passage of time have made it easier.
Thank you to the people I love, and who somehow love me, for being there every step of the way.
