Review of 2014
Living in Scotland in 2014 has been a strange one having the worlds eyes watching you through the Commonwealth games, the Scottish independence referendum and the Ryder Cup these were all positive things to come to this country seeing so many different cultures come to this country and making it one. Even though these positives came about we cant forget about the negatives things that have also happened, the things happened made the nation stronger such as the bin lorry driving in to a crowd of Christmas Shoppers, the year anniversary of the Clutha Bar tragedy. We wont ever forget these things. The beginning of 2015 is meant to be a time to reflect on what happened the year before we saw many planes disappearing from air traffic control radars some have been found while others are still missing i cant imagine the pain these families must be in not known what has happened to their loved one. Also in 2014 we saw the outbreak of the Ebola virus in Africa countries panicked and went in to lock down we were to busy worrying about our own countries that we forgot about stopping the spread of the virus.
In a nutshell i want 2015 to be better for the world and for myself but i know from experience that the year would be wrong if it went perfect, i like to ride to the waves that each year brings, it bring so many opportunities, people to meet and for me develop myself cause at the end of the day know one is perfect, I will leave you with some of my resolutions
1) Finished my HND Radio course
2) go to university
3) get myself healthy physically and emotionally.

falling apart
I am smiling all day to keep the tears from falling but as soon as i am alone i let them fall it makes me remember how unhappy i actual i am. Im disappearing from class to cry on my own i have got so much better at hiding it, i dont want anyone to worry about me or be labeled as an attention seeker.
I have already been to open about how i am feeling i now regret it so much i wish i could just go back and continue in silence as i have for five years before hand. I wish i just said i was fine when people asked me instead of been stupid and saying that i was feeling crap all the time.
i am beginning to feel like every person i know is against me one way or another. People are treating me different to what they normally would, My dad's attitude has change towards me he was once so close to me now he is distant it hurts so much that he doesnt care. My mum has never cared about me. My friends seem to be putting there noses in where it isnt needed. I cant do this anymore i just want to run away but how can i when its all in my head only way i know to control it is by drinking, harming, starving or making myself throw up at least i feel something.
ever wondered
I ask myself this question near enough everyday but don't talk about it with anyone till now,
I just want to know
Who would actual notice i was gone. For a start none of my 'friends' they haven't text me or notice i haven't been on facebook but could i blame them NO. They deserve way better than me.
Who would cry beside my grave probably everyone i know but i would soon become a distant memory, as my soul lived on i would be thinking why are you caring now you didn't when i was alive so what change.
How many people would give a damn about my family and see if they are okay

disney
Turn away and slam the door
I don't care
what they're going to say
Let the storm rage on.
The cold never bothered me anyway
Disney is something that always puts a smile on my face, everytime I hear one of disneys songs a big smile appears on my face and cant stop it, the lyrics go around in my head all day it is like they bouncing of my empty skull. They fill up the empty space that once contained a brain they give me hope they are rebuilding a new brain in which should make me a happier person in the long run. just not the same person I use to be, but one I will definitely be proud to say that is me. Think I am going to do some of the question from the Disney tag
Q. A scene in any Disney movie you wish you could experience?
A. The lights in Tangled cause that moment would be truly magical moment
Q.If you could choose any of the characters to be your best friend, who would you choose?
A. probably the beast from beauty and the beast because he is stuck in a world that doesn't except him for who he is just like me in real life.
Q.Who are your favourite Disney princesses?
A. There is a few couldn't just pick one of them
- Elsa and Anna from Frozen as they show that you done need a man to safe you, just love
- Rapunzel from Tangled as she shows that you don't have to stick to the status quo, you can go out in the world and do what ever you want to do, and not worry about what people think.
- Belle as she accepts the beast for who he is in beast and human form.
Q.Name a scene/moment in any Disney movie that never fails to make you cry?
A. Again there are definitely a few
- When princess Anna protects queen Elsa at the end of Frozen even when she has a frozen heart and when a true act of true love breaks the spell.
- Flynn Ryder take Rapunzel to see the lights a wee tear jerker there
- Lighting Mcqueen helps Dinoco at the end of cars when he gets wipe out

sorry
i am sorry for been annoying its just a way to cover everything up
I am sorry i cant stay in contact more often guess i am just a arsehole
Sorry i didnt let you in to my world when you could of helped guess i thought i could do it on my own and still do
i am sorry i didnt turn out the way you thought i was going to
i am sorry i have ask for help i didnt deserve the help when there are people who deserve it more
Guess what i am trying to say is sorry to everyone, i just really want to be happy but whenever i do people just show me i dont deserve happiness with their words and actions. I spend the days on my own and the nights crying in to my pillow and cutting my skin cause these are the only thing that is ever there for me. People keep telling me i am not alone but at two o'clock in the morning i am definitely alone, i dont want to disturb anyone as they may be sleeping and they deserve it.
I have even come to the conclusion i DONT deserve warmth, food, friends or anything

what really is happiness
I dont want people to worry about me cause all i am doing is hiding everything from people who care about me, cause they deserve better than me, they deserve people who make sure they are okay put them before themselves that how it should be. People say to me they care and they will always be there for me which is wrong because at 3 o'clock in the morning i am definitely alone, no one to stop me from doing stupid stuff, no one help when i go to far. i know people want me to get better but i dont believe i am strong enough to do it, which is the hardest part. I am trying to explain how i want help but at the same time i want to be left alone, i dont deserve to recover i have obviously did some bad to deserve all this pain weather that be in my past life or something i did when i was younger. After such a long time, i have fallen in love with the sadness and have convinced myself i am nothing without it. i worship it by the thin white lines that cover my body. I hate it but cant live without it. I stand in front of my mirror and pinch the fat on my stomach, legs and arms hoping if i pinch hard enough, the physical pain will purge the sadness and anger out, it obviously never works but of course i do it again subconsciously . I eventually forget why i did it in the first place and i do it because it just simply feels good. How fucked up is that. It feels good to physically hurt myself, drag razor blades across a part of my body, punch walls, dig my nails in to my skin and stave myself.

Stop telling
For some reason over the last few days people keep telling me what to do. I am 19 years old i can make my own decisions. Like today my mum asked me if i wanted to go swimming tomorrow, i said no for a few reason such as my cuts and scars and i dont exactly enjoy swimming like i use to, and thats okay because people change but people cant accept that so that dont matter

see the world
I see the world through i distorted lens, some day are clearer, while the majority of my days are dark, grey and miserable filled with confusion. I can relate to every single one of the questions, one of the questions sparked something in my mind and that question been 'to have everyone constantly asking if you are okay until it gets to the point where no-one asks, making you wonder if they dont notice or just dont care' this is because when i first started opening up about how i was feeling to a tutor and some of my college "mates" they would ask how i was doing every morning, just a side note i know the tutor had to get me to speak to a guidance counsellor or was at risk of losing his job so i understand that. Now my college "mates" dont even ask they act like i am magical cured because i smile and joke about with them, my days are getting less dark but there is still dark, grey and sometimes a little bit of sunshine appears. That is with very little support the only thing that is keeping me going is fake happiness coming from meds, my closest companion (blade) and some inspiring words from Demi Lovato 'never be ashamed of what you feel you have the right to feel any emotion you want' I broke on holiday just under a month ago and heard from no-one apart from one person, he is always there to help me whenever i need him but i feel bad for texting him my problems cause he is one holiday too and probably has better things to do than to stop me from doing something stupid.
You think you want to die but in reality you only want to be saved. you smile but you are not really happy. you ask but you dont really want to know. you talk but you arent really saying anything. you laugh but you dont find it funny. you cry but it doesnt really mean anything. you get up but you arent really awake.you sleep but you arent resting. you are alive but you arent really living. you try to save everyone but you cant save yourself.
You dont know anything about a person, you only know what they show. Everyone has hopes and fears and you can push a person you can only push a person so far before the break

feeling rejected ( could be triggering)
Family day what is the point when i spend the whole day babysitting on three hours sleep, running around in the heat wearing a cardigan, when i sat down i get moaned at. How is that fair when my wee brother just gets to sit there and do nothing. Then i realised why they want me they want me to do photo of my niece cause they cant be bother to book a professional photographer. I am so annoyed. They hardly spoke to me the whole day and whenever i tried to speak to them they didnt even acknowledged me but i know they hard me cause they shoot me a dirty look straight at me, dont think i am going to go through it again i might stay in bed.
The worst thing about the heat and self injury is trying to hide it, wearing loads of bracelets you will end up with a big white bit if you burn or tan, the dirty looks you get when wearing long sleeves when it is so hot, i got a lot of them today everyone was wearing shorts, vest top, dresses and then there was me, wear denim shorts, hoping no-one would notice the scars on my lower leg they never did whew, a t-shirt and a long sleeve cardigan, hiding my fresh cuts, not one of my family members ask why.
well that was my day getting rejected, ignored and treated like a slave. Here are some pictures of where i was
The land is just so beautiful
My first time ever seen a caterpillar so was quite excited so i took a few
Wish i could stay here
Just loved how the sea had made little mounds of sand
Just one of the pics i took of the waves and the town of St Andrews
this was just stunning the sun reflecting of the water
First time i had ever seen a caterpillar
stay lovely you lovely people
Also have a hug

friends NOT
I think the biggest issue is my friends cant see or hear the things that are going on through my mind, on the outside I look fine having a good laugh like the next person, while on the inside there is a dark cloud which rains every so often, but the rain is getting better not raining as much as it used to but the dark cloud is still remains and think its going to be there for the foreseeable future.

Happy for once
After this we headed for a bus up to our local cinema because where the shops are it can take up to a hour to walk to it so the best bet is the bus we aren't lazy or anything "coughs". We got our tea/dinner, healthy option of course, MacDonald s, we munched, laughed and chattered like we normally do.
Cinema time, we bought our tickets and tango ice blasts and took our seats in the auditorium, half way between the top and bottom, perfect seats, The film began but because me and my friend had read the book we were kind of hoping it lived up to, it definitely did. I knew who was in store so i came prepared with tissues, My friend started before me so i give her one to wipe away her tears i think it hit home more to her because someone she was close to die of cancer not so long ago, while me i never experiance it. Once she had a tissue i glanced around behind me and there were two teenage girls in floods of tears too, so i offered them one so they could also wipe their tears away, this is where i began the tears streamed down my face.
When we got back to our home time we were just talking when about the film and life, but more about life. we were mentioned that no matter what our past are that makes us who we are today and we shouldn't be afraid. How some things should be left unsaid because people that weren't involved shouldn't really be involved now, our pasts can still effect us but we shouldnt be dwelling on them to much

Heat is killing me
Today was one of these days, i had a pair of light washed jeans and a jumper on as i was just sitting in the house, the house was a reasonable temperature, plus no-one was in everyone was out in the garden enjoying the sun, i isolate till about the back of two, so i decide to join them of course with my book this way no-one would talk to me and i have done this a few time so i knew it would work. However fifteen minutes of me been out someone said to me take your jumper of you will be cooking, i used the excuse is i am fine and continued to use this for the next hour. i began to feel the heat and didn't people to wonder to much.
Let me explain something first I harm myself where ever i can get to first and on one occasion during last week i had a pair of jammie shorts on and a jumper on the top half and of course a t-shirt. I went straight to the lower leg to get my fix. In the morning no-one noticed it because i did it on the side so it was like in the middle so when both my legs are together you would see it.
I came into the house at the back of three to change in to shorts but was still anxious that someone would see the cut on my lower leg. So before i went back out I practised how i was going to sit so no-one would notice it. Half an hour later i head back out, people question why it took me so long to put shorts on and take my jumper on ( I put a long sleeved top on instead but made of thinner material) I just pretended like i didnt hear them. Someone did notice the cut on my leg and ask how I had done it, My quickest reaction ever i did it while shaving, that shut them up.
Really hope the weather in Scotland starts to cool down again so I dont look so insane

Help
Since finishing college for the summer I dont have the support from my tutors, guidance or anyone. This ten week summer is going to test how strong I am and at the moment dont feel like i am going to survive and if i do go back what i am going to say I failed to live during the summer, i dont want to leave bed and just sleep all day because every time i am awake i am living my so called life, that includes crying, harming myself, suicidal thoughts and over thinking, If I am a sleep I am safe from myself i cant created damage if i am sleep. Seriously wish i had the courage just to end it all that way I will be safe from myself and others
One thing that really annoying me that people say the care about me but where are they when i need them no where, just shows that no-one actual cares about me everyone in my life are all fake they only want me when they need someone to be there for them or they want something but what happens with me i am shoved to the bottom of the pile. I am to nice for my own good.
text message reference
Hi Megan, i read your note depression (& self harming) is a mental illness that can be cured with medicine and therapy. you will get better in time in time. how you feel is just part of the illness. you just need to remember that YOU WILL GET BETTER. It is an illness that needs treatment to get well. If you need to talk i am here for you as is guidance at the college and your GP and social worker.
just feel like it isnt working and just getting worse
stick with it Meg. it just takes time thats all. Maybe better medication if its not working
trying everyday trying to keep a smile on my face
you are going great. you are aware of the need for change. you are growing everyday
just a step forward then 5 back thats what it feels like
yep. thats what depression feels like Meg, but IT WILL PASS! just need to tough it out
yep for as long as possible
it will pass i promise you. it burns itself out in the end and you will find some peace of mind.
you promise
yep
wish it would hurry up
i've been there. trust me
i trust you just not myself
then it's time to trust someone else
these messages show me that people can and do care about me even though sometimes it doesnt show

Cant sleep
I cant sleep it 20 to 12 at night and for the last two hours i have been trying to go to sleep need to be up early tomorrow going to visit my old high school.
Everytime i close my eyes i can see an outline of a person who looks like they are going to hit me. I know its probably just my imagination but tonight isnt the first night of it happening it has appeared on a number of ocassion and even when i open my eyes i can still see it standing at the side of my bed but i cant move the only part i can move is my eyes. This must sound crazy but its true. It is kind of terrifying.

Alone
I dont mind my friends as they come and go through out life but my mum should be there supporting me, willing to listen to me, have my back always but i dont, She seems to think i am fine but she cant see the inside which is broken. No-one can fix it apart from myself and the quicker i learn the only person i can rely on is myself the better. Then what happens when i cant lean on myself when i need the comfort from some other, I dont have anyone that actual cares the only people who truly do are paid to care about me.
Plus why do people always make me feel like i am nothing. like i am a piece of shit on the bottom of their shoe. Its happens so often i am starting to believe i am nothing and never will be

Confused
Today i visited Kingdom FM with Jordan Burt to sit in Ali Mclearn Saturday afternoon show. Which was a great experience to be apart of as Ali taught as the basic of the studio layout. Even let me go live on air and talk about an outfit dilemma i had for going out to the pub tonight (wasn't actual happening) but was needing content so i stood up and done it. I was slightly nervous and was worried if i swore but luckily i didn't.
Now because of this experience I now want to go back and complete the course ahhhh. Brain stop it seriously need to make a decision soon and stick with it the more i change my mind the worse it is going to get.
Positive of sticking in
1) I might struggle with the the next year but i have the support in place to get through it
2) HND is more looked upon than a HNC
3) More networking possibilities
P.S its been a week since i last cut follow this blog to find out more about this chapter

Dilemma
I wanted to drop out after first semester (just after Christmas) because i was becoming to much for me but for some reason and have no idea why i end up back for semester two trying to fight with everything and it paid off in the end even though i feel like it is not my best work i could off probably done a lot better on some off my classes such as News Production, Graded Unit, Feature Production and commercials but its done now just got to hope.
I hate making decisions about my future can i go back to been a child when you didnt really have to worry about it all you worried about was what your snack was.

An Introduction
So here goes nothing, time to start documenting my life.
Well lets start off with my name, Megan but i prefer Meg or Megsy. I am your typical 19 year old female obsessed with the boy band, one direction NOT i am like the only one that isnt. When i am not in college (studying radio) you will find me either in my bed sleeping or staring at a computer screen browsing through hours of youtube videos or scrolling through my facebook and twitter feed.
I am constantly moving between houses so i have no proper home, when i am staying with my parents i dont feel welcome i feel more welcomed at friends houses. I dont mind this way of life because i dont get on with my parents that well i am treated more like a slave more than a daughter.
I was diagnosed with depression in March of this year after battling with negative emotions, cutting and thoughts of suicide for five years so some of the posts that come up in this blog may include some tips and tricks to help me or you get through anything. This year so far i have attempting to commit suicide four times and the most recent one was only a month ago. This inst about attention seeking this is a way i have been recommend to get my emotions out.
any questions or want to know more about me just ask not afraid to answer them
