Self Preservation Vs Psychological Survival

Self preservation vs psychological survival contains a series of poems and writings written in an up-close and honest manner about self harm and its affects. The realities, the mind set and the addiction, all written from the authors own personal experiences. A deep and sometimes dark journey into the misunderstood mind of one who destroyed to survive. I'm considered to be 'a survivor', but it's never that simple. "I am, what is known as, an X self harmer, and in some of my darkest hours I put pen to paper and found a sense of release in the words that poured out. I hope my words will help you if you are in a similar situation, or know of someone in a similar predicament and wish to further your understanding. This book maybe black and white, but self harm isn’t. oh, delicate eyes. I pray you read me with an open heart." P.Landore
