Her Story... "Michelle"
I am a seventeen year old who has been struggling with problems since I was in middle school. I did not talk about them and they just sort of got worse as I got older. The problems
included smoking, cutting or self-mutilation, depression and demonic activity. For the past two years I lived in a cave... a dark place where I was alone and sometimes afraid. I was
tired all the time and did not want to be around people. I would lock myself in my room. I would cry a lot for no reason. I would not eat. I could not sleep. During this time I
was hospitalized for a few days to see if they could help me overcome the depression. It did not work. I would cut on myself during my depression. It was the only way that I knew
how to take my anger out. I would carve names and designs in my arm and my leg. I would use razor blades, broken glass, paper clips, and safety pins as my cutting tools. I have scars
that remind me of what I did. I needed help but could not find what I needed. I wished there was a place close by that I could go to live for a while where I could get better.
