emmalee I think these days I'd be ok living back with my parents. They're pretty fantastic and know I'm in my 20s they don't tend to worry as much about me so if I was coming home late or drunk then I wouldn't feel as guilty. I don't think I would want to live with...

I, myself, is a very shy person. It's been a part of my personality ever since I was a kid. I think it's natural! I know a lot of us also feel the same way when someone stares at us especially when they stare from head to...

emmalee I think it's definitely human to get awkward when your stared and AND to assume the worst. I used to be painfully shy but I'm starting to get much more confident (it just comes from life experience really) so people staring doesn't really bother me so much...

emmalee wowsers, I have so many dreams I wouldn't know where to start. I'm a musician so ideally I'd just love to spend my days playing music and creating art without having to worry about money. I want to have children as well so that's definitely on the horizon....

emmalee I would say childish has negative connotations. It's being immature and not being able to take serious things seriously. It's acting like a child in both good AND bad ways. However, child at heart is more like a person that is mature but has a sense of fun...

emmalee yeah good old slim, he released something lik 100 albums in his life time. I was never a huge fan of the music of his I heard, a little too novelty country for my liking (why is this in the Johnny Cash section by the way) but he was definitely an icon. Oh...

emmalee it's not a 'trend'! I have to cringe when people use that word. A trend suggests it's something 'fahionable' - it's a serious problem! For me, I had heard about self harm from friends - usually just mentioned flipantly. I tried it when things got too much...

emmalee Definitely. It's very difficult to explain to other people why, as you put it, you can't "get yourself together". It can be extremely frustrating for loved ones who just want you to be happy. I don't think anyone expects people to really "understand" but at...

emmalee the person who said that self-harmers are cowards really needs to wak up. it's this sort of narrow-minded attitude towards mental health that leads people to self-harm and worse in the first place. Also self-harm is not just a teen problem. I'm 23 and have...
