Values encompass choosing personal values in different domains and striving to live according to those principles. This stands in contrast to actions driven by the desire to avoid distress or adhere to other people’s expectations, for example.

◎Self Harm
◎(21/8/24)
Find alternative.
Can still talk about it even tho...
◎Sexual
Adults are entitled to make their own decisions, some use this entitlement wisely while others may not.
Teenagers are easily getting too involved in relationships, thats why ppl are so tense about it.
◎Self Harm
(28/8/24)
I can't find reason why I should fight anymore.
Why is sh a bad thing?
Should I make my own relapse plan? (What to do afterwards, who to talk to, what I shouldn't do, should I punish myself for it?)
What are the alternatives?
