    when she said "you weren't self absorbed, you were ill" I feel like that was such a mature thing for her to say. That fact that she was only 16 is crazy

    This video made me cry.. my sister had to watch me in deep depression and witnessed my suciside attempt and had to see my self harm scars. Never understood or seemed to try how she thought about it all. So thank you Amy for helping me and many others see how our mental illness didn’t only effect us

    Could you talk about swimming with self harm sometime? *edit* i know i posted this over a year ago, but i want to clarify that i meant with scars. i do not actively self harm anymore but i deal with a lot of insecurity about my scars. thanks for the replies anyways!

    When I was between the ages of 8-12 my older sister struggled very badly with her mental health. She spent those years in and out of the hospital, attempting suicide and self harming. As a very young kid I wasn’t told what was truly going on. I was told that sometimes people get really sad and have to go to the hospital. I didn’t truly know what was happening. Until I was 12. My sister attempted suicide and it was really close. We had just come home and I went up to say hi to her. I went into her room and saw her almost dead on her bed. Then it was a rush of ambulances and she went to the hospital. I wasn’t told until days later what had really happened. That’s also when I was told what self harm was. Now my sister is so much better. She has her own kid and is living an amazing life. Watching this video I felt like someone understood what I went through for the first time. ❤️❤️

    Your sister is amazing, and really pretty. I am a sibling of someone with mental health issues, and he had his first episode when i was 14, and he was 16 turning 17, so i found it pretty tough. I went to a steiner school, which was very close knit, so everyone knew about what had happened to my brother, and were sympathetic, although some of the younger ones couldn't understand it. He never went into a physch ward until he was 18, he was seen as too young to go into a ward, although that wud be a different case now, but this was in the late 80s, in rural yorkshire. Orginally he was quite ill for around half a year, and then unfortunately later in his 20s to 30s mainly, physch hospitals became like a revolving door to him, cos he was never quite on the right medication or decided to stop taking it, plus like myself at the time, and i am not proud of what i did at the time, he got involved in drugs like cannabis...his episodes would be triggered by him not being able to sleep, then he wud become physchotic, and he is schizophrenic as it is, he doesn't hear voices, but he can be very delusional, schizophrenia is not just about hearing voices in your head telling you to do things, that has never happened to him, but his veiw of the world is very unusual, he is very negative about things, fearful, and has pet hates.

You’re definitely stronger than you think and more beautiful than you believe. Please talk to somebody. A friend, teacher, youth leader, parent, anyone just please get help before it gets any worse.

    So now, as an older sister, do you get paranoid that your younger sister may be self harming? I get sooooo paranoid but I try and equip them with things I didn’t have to cope with if they need it

      Earrings were asos and necklaces were missguided! I got the earrings a while ago so I’m not sure if they’re still there (but they always have loads similar) and the missguided ones were only a few weeks back ❤️☺️

    I have been going through this as well I’ve felt really upset with everything going on and felt like I just want it all to end self harming was a really bad way to cope with all of the stuff I was going through I also I’m part of a thing called the squad in gymnastics I train 8 hours a week and we are always told that we can’t eat a lot and that made me stop eating and I got really sick I honestly felt like I was crazy for all of this stuff even though I wasn’t I hope anyone else going through something like this gets better I love gymnastics but it’s been making things a lot worse for me
