My first attempt was when I was in 8th grade, cutting just wasn't enough for me. I had given up all hope on every being able to keep going in life and it just got worse and I decided one day I had enough and I tried to end it all. I've been fighting with bipolar depression and suicide for 7 years now.

It was my first attempt. I would have succeded if my little sister didnt find me. Everyday since then (1 & a half months ago) I feel so guilty and people constantly talk about my attempt. High school is tough
