Explores self-transformation and personal accountability, expressing the struggle and courage required to confront one's own brokenness. i began to reflect on the necessity of reshaping my identity and heart, acknowledging fear and grief as a part of the journey toward self-discovery and acceptance. This time in my life I started become numb to the loss of my brother "Shane" and began pushing down any emotion that tried to flow through me and instead chose to cut myself to bleed, as my release from the pain within. I was slowly slipping into someone I had never known existed within.For my family all hope was gone of the old me to ever return. Noone was talking and I was screaming inside.
