Ok so this post is extremely long and I put it all together for my blogs Feeling sad page but as I don’t have a huge amount of followers I realize so many people are not seeing this information so I’m posting it here too!

alternatives without harming yourself:

  • holding/squeezing ice.
  • splashing your face with water.
  • getting a rubber band and snapping it against your skin (this could hurt, though it’s better than other ways that people usually choose to self-harm).
  • take a hot shower or bath.
  • eat something sour. it will take your mind of the urge. (lemon, sour lollies)
  • massage where you want to self-harm.
  • get a red pen or red paint and draw/paint over where you usually self-harm.
  • remind yourself as to why you shouldn’t do it. (scars, harms organs, leave memories etc…)
  • describe what you are feeling. (is the urge/pain in your chest, fists, legs, arms, head).

killing yourself will not help. it is not a solution.

you have your whole life ahead of you. you have so many more years that you can accomplish things in. for example;

  • having a family.
  • getting married.
  • to watch the sun rise.
  • to watch the sun set.
  • to save someone else’s life.
  • finish school.
  • get your dream job.
  • to laugh.
  • to smile.
  • to go camping.
  • travel to new places.
  • to wake up every morning to the person you love.
  • friends.
  • family.
  • to keep that promise you made.
  • to accomplish a goal.
  • to meet your idol.
  • to listen to new music.
  • theme parks.
  • video games.
  • chocolate.
  • to be able to look back and say “i made it”.

what you’re going through is temporary.

in case you need to hear this:

  • you are loved.
  • you are wanted.
  • you are needed.
  • you are beautiful.
  • you are handsome.
  • you are important.
  • you are not alone.
  • you are okay.
  • you are strong.
  • you are worth it.
  • you are smart.
  • you are not a failure.
  • you are useful.
  • you are going to be okay.

Thank you.

A few thank yous to the most important people I’ve interacted with on tumblr (basically all of you). I’ve got to post this now because I’m going to be far too emotional when I come to the end of writing!

@jodiereedus22 thank you for being one of the first people to talk to me about my Daryl fics and for being the first person I met from this site! I’m so glad we got to go to those conventions together, and I hope we meet again so we can reminisce about the good times.

@taronfanfic thank you for becoming one of my closest confidants. I’m really grateful I get to call you one of my absolute best friends, and my life wouldn’t be the same without you in it. Another pizza night shall be had soon!

@lv7867 thank you for being the loveliest person and reblogging everything I write (even if it is a pile of crap 😜) every writer deserves a person like you.

@timeandpixiedust thank you for commenting on pretty much every Gwilym fic I’ve ever written, it is so uplifting and again every writer deserves someone like you.

@drivenbybri thank you for always being such a positive person and blessing us with your beautiful edits. I’m really grateful that I get to call you a friend as well, you’re just so lovely.

@likesomekindofcheese and @itsametaphorgwil thank you for sharing your talents with us and also being lovely to talk to. To me you will always be known as the Samuel Castell girls!

To all those people whose usernames pop up in my notifications on a regular basis ( @literatureandqueen, @the-baby-bookworm, @taronegertonthewelshboi2, @tesla-is-bae, @serenitycreek, @big-deak-energy, @misslolasworld, @what-wicked-delights, @mrsgwilymlee to name but a few!) to see your names appear time and time again is an absolute honour, and I thank you from the bottom of my heart.

To all those who have stuck around since the Daryl days; I salute you. Thank you for watching me fall from fandom to fandom like a leaf blowing in the wind, I hope it wasn’t too much of a bumpy ride!

To everyone who has ever commented, liked, reblogged, or even simply READ one of my fics… THANK YOU! I wouldn’t have stuck around for so long without your support. It means the absolute world.

My life has been completely changed by being on this site and I am so very grateful for each and every one of you and your much appreciated encouragement. It’s been an amazing experience and I’ll miss writing I’m sure, but all good things must come to an end unfortunately and now is the right time for me to stop. I’ll still be around for a chat though, so don’t be afraid to send me a message if you want! Make sure you all keep supporting writers and artists on here, and take full advantage of that reblog button if you like something!

Lots of love to each and every one of you, Jo xxx

Honestly you have been of one my favourite writers on this website! I started following you because of Taron and I have loved everything you have posted since! When ever I need a pick me up, I go straight to your blog ❤️❤️
