"Do not pity the dead, Harry. Pity the living, and, above all those who live without love" - Albus DumbledoreHi, I'm Laura. I'm a senior in college & I'm slowly deciding what I want to do with my life. I love Harry Potter, coffee, writing, and sleeping (amongst other things). I'll never claim to know everything, but I'm confident in my ability to help people with their problems. Feel free to send me an inbox question; I'll get back to you!
A few thoughts I've gathered from my teenage years (and being on this site for most of them!):
1. If you Google song lyrics, the song will come up 99% of the time.
2. Dress to fit your body type, and buy the size that fits. If you're a size 6, squeezing into a 4 won't make you look skinnier. It makes you look fat when you aren't.
3. You will never regret waiting to lose your virginity.
4. There is such a thing as a stupid question, but we're all allowed to ask them.

wicked awesome conversations
^my forum, liven it up a little?
advice
Ok well my friend's sweet 16 is coming up and it's an indoor pool party. And I'm not sure what to wear because I can't wear bathing suit bottoms or shorts because you can see my self-harm scars. so maybe someone can help me figure out what to wear. And please don't give me answers like "you shouldn't self-harm, it's unhealthy and bad" I know it's unhealthy and what not but you don't know me and what I've been through. all I'm asking for is advice what to wear not my depression/self harming issues. so if you could help that would be great.
thanks !

Have you considered wearing a bikini or tankini top, and board shorts? If your scars are mostly above your knees that would work perfectly. You could say something like "Oh, my legs aren't beach-ready yet. I'm so pale!" if you're asked about your clothing choice.
And I know you don't want to hear it, but asking for help isn't a sign of weakness. Just remember that, ok?
