I'm a perfectionist so I get upset a lot. I get upset when my projects are slightly crumpled or if the binding on a term paper is not aligned or if I get a B in school. When anything doesn't go as planned I get very very upset. Having typical Asian parents who expect their kids to score straght A's all the time does not help either.

After a while things start to pile up inside of me. And I could'nt tell anyone because I find that I don't trust anyone. I just depend on me. After some time I got depressed. Then I started cutting myself.

I know it sounds silly. But somehow when everything builds up inside, you just don't think straight.

I'm still that perfectionist but I don't hurt myself anymore. Nor do I think that badly of myself. Counselling helps.
