How long have you had your blog?
I’ve had this blog since late December of 2011. But I’ve been on Tumblr on and off since 2009.
How many followers do you have?
22,000+. Although I will never know how people willingly put up with my silly ramblings, I am incredibly flattered.
What is the significance of “_________ days” in your description?
It’s the amount of time I’ve gone without self harming.
Will you promote/follow me?
I don’t do promotions, sorry. And I will gladly check out your blog, but I can’t guarantee that I will follow.
Why didn’t you answer my question?
Where did you get your theme?
Here. Although I did play around with the HTML coding a bit.
Where is __________ from?
The title will be among the tags. If it’s not something I made, please ask the original poster.
How do you make a GIF?
Click here for my GIF tutorial.
What do you use to make your GIFs? Do you know of any good websites I can use to make my own GIFs?
I use Photoshop CS5. And no, I don’t. Sorry. I’ve only ever used Photoshop.
Why won’t my GIF work when I upload it to Tumblr?
The file size is probably too big. You have to make it less than 1MB.
Where are you from?
Connecticut in the United States. I live about an hour away from New York City.
Do you self harm?
Yes. I’ve been struggling with it since early February of 2011. My family and a few close friends know. I am doing my best to stop.
What are your diagnoses?
Major depression and anxiety. I also suffer from occasional auditory hallucinations. (Currently, my psychiatrist is looking into bipolar disorder as a possible diagnosis.)
Do you see any mental health professionals for your issues?
Yes. I see a therapist and a psychiatrist.

Do you take any medications?
Yes. I take Lamictal to stabilize my moods and Celexa for my anxiety.
Have you ever attempted suicide?
Yes. Once in June of 2011. And again in January of 2012.
Do you attend a school?
Technically, no. I go to an online high school, which I started “attending” my junior year (the 2011 - 2012 school year). I do schoolwork on a regular basis just like normal students my age. I enjoy it much better than “regular” high school.
You are such an inspiration to me/I love your blog/You’re amazing/Other compliments.
Thank you so much. I honestly cannot even express how wonderful it is to read the sweet messages you all send me. I do my best to thank people who are not anonymous if I get the chance. I occasionally thank anons as well. But more often than not, it’s difficult for me to get to each one. However, please keep in mind that I take each message to heart and am immensely appreciative.
Other people have it worse than you do. Get over it.
