Our Helen... « Thread Started on Oct 3, 2003, 3:22pm »
Meet me, our Helen, and a story that no-one want s to read...
Let me tell you a story.
About a girl.
She's called Helen.
Our girl was born on the 21st of February 1989. In the United Arab of Emirates. That's quite a way away.
Our girl went through the normal things in school. She was bullied horribly, beaten up everyday for two years of her school life. Our girls parents were in the school office everyday because our girl came out crying and covered in bruises.
The school never did anything.
But after two years there appeared to be a light at the end of the tunnel. The evil boy left to go to a different school. Our girl was happy for a time, he was gone. Everything would be fine.
But it wasn't.
Her best friend left and moved a long way away. Now Helen had no friends.
But then someone else started bullying her. Every other day our Helen was crying.
Then she met Lucy, the popular slut. (Seriously she was 8 and was a total slut) Surprisingly they got on well. Now Helen had friends. Someone to protect her. This girl Lucy turned our girl into a bit of a slut, but our Helen always held herself back.
Because she was a good girl.
Helen started to lose all feeling in heart. She stopped crying altogether because she was no longer weak.
In year 5 our Helen changed schools with all her friends. Made some new friends and some new enimies.
Nothing much happened, apart from she discovered that she got depressed a lot. When she was 10 she started hair pulling, head banging, punching herself. This always helped.
She stopped getting bullied. She stopped a lot of things.
In year six she was still hair pulling, she was in a bad class, and they gave their teacher a nervous breakdown. Helen lost her best friend Lucy in that year and became somewhat dead. She met Jess properly, and they liked eachother.
In year 7 our Helen started to really hate herself. She developed an eating disorder. Because she was fat. Throwing up after meals. When our girl realised what this was doing to herself she stopped. But it's always there. She continued head banging etc. She met Heather and Zaz, they got on quite well.
In year 8 she was best friends with Jess. She didn't learn anything, and she and Lucy stopped speaking altogether. She discovered Wicca and her writing. For a time, everything was great.
But she was still depressed.
She moved into high school. She hated it. But she hated life more.
On november 19th 2002 Helen officially cut for the first time. Her life was collapsing around her.
In december she met Paul. Her soulmate.
After that there was a 2 attempted suicides and an awful lot of betryal.
Recently our girl tried suicide again. Our girl has started thinking about death a lot more.
But this world will not kill her.
This is the story about our girl Helen.
She is not happy.
Not smiling.
Never right.
And the eating disorder has reared it's ugly head.
Never will be right again.
