Mira's adventures **trigger warnings**

I bet more of us here have sh than you realise and we understand why people take that route.

I have and I completely understand. For me it’s a coping mechanism, it’s a way of feeling something, it’s a way of distracting from the Emotional Pain, it’s a way of expressing how much I hated that I wasn’t in control of my own mind. For me, getting through all that and finding alternative, healthier ways of dealing with all that took time and was hard, but it can be done.
