This is what matters most, regardless of your viral load. Remember: V≠V. Viral Load Does NOT Equal Value.

There is a moment in my recovery that haunts me still.
It is not the long inventory of parts ofme that I lost.
It is the realization
that I was the one to cut those parts away to survive.

To all those who fight to just live -
I hope you know that doing the work, as hard as it is, as exhausting as it is, as much as it hurts sometimes is a form of self-love.

A note on self harm
We who self harm, We are no different than those who seek relief from our past through alcohol or medication. Self-harm is a coping mechanism. Full stop.
@thinkingtooloud.org#CPTSD
Never forget.
You have phenomenal courage.
To venture out to find new shores is a courageous act in defiance of your past.
