You Think My Life Is Some Fairytale? Video
Selena in this video represents myself. This video is a way of venting and sharing my story.& Im not gonna lie im extremely afraid of sharing my story, but part of healing after something traumatic is accepting it, and you have to tell your story to get it out. So making this video & sharing it with you guys is my way of healing.
------------------------------
My story- I had a best friend, who I was friends with since 4th grade. & An amazingly sweet, funny, overall great boyfriend. Not like we were on the way to marriage or anything, but like any relationship he meant alot to me, as did my family. Things just started falling apart, my mom out of the blue said she wanted a divorce from my dad, my best friend started hanging out with my boyfriend...which me being the trusting friend, doubted anything...until she told me she liked him, and I caught them being overly flirty with one another. Having your best friend & boyfriend betray you like that has to be one of the worst feelings ever, but it got worse when my Grandpa, the only person at the time who could make me laugh throughout all the problems I had, got diagnosed with prostate cancer & lost his life to it. With all the problems in my life I felt as though i somehow deserved these things happening to me, as if it was my fault "maybe I didnt spend enough time with my boyfriend" "maybe I led him to cheat on me" "maybe my best friends better than me which is why he wanted her" "maybe my granda died because I wasnt appreciating him enough" "maybe my parents divorced cause of me"...SO many things went through my head that convinced me that it was all my fault, and I felt like I needed to cause myself pain instead of everyone else doing it for me. So I started cutting, and in the moment you forget your problems sure...but then your left with these deep scars that constantly remind you of why you cut to begin with, leaving you feeling completly miserable and ashamed that you hit that low of a time in your life. But when you hit rock bottom the only place you can go is up from there, & thats when I started therapy, stopped cutting,moved in with my dad & met a guy at school who makes me forget I ever had a past because he makes me just want to think of the future as cheesy as that sounds.
---------
Just want to say that your life can be horrible, miserable, tragic, anything....but things do get better & when they do you appreciate life THAT much more because you know that life isnt always easy, and that you no longer take happiness for grantid, so when you have it, its just amazing. & ALWAYS remember "you were given this life because you are STRONG enough to live it"
----------------
Its crazy to think that just putting my life into clips could get an honor #82 - Most Discussed (Today) - Entertainment& spark SO much discussion. im amazed, & thank you guys so much for being so supportive. i love you all =]

4everluvinjb: Aw, I love it. :[ It's an amazing story. Just remember, you're amazing and whatever happens, it's really not your fault even though it may feel like it. No one is worth the suffering, and my gradpa passed away from cancer too, and it's hard, but I'm glad you're pulling through. I wish I could be a lot more meaningful and thoughtful with this, but I really can't do that with out crying. The scars may be the reminder, but it will be one of how you pulled through and changed lives with this. <3

wrongSaint: God, you made me cry. You're amazing, and sharing your story with us was so brave of you. Your story looks a lot like mine, and it makes me happy, not because those things happened to you, but because i'm not alone. Hh, so thank you and this video is on my favorites :)
pamhsmmcfly: Wow! I'm so sorry about your story, I mean the cutting&cheating thing... Is times like this that you discover who your friends really are... And I know you must've thought that your life was over and you had nothing at all... But there always Something good, it can be really small, but if you look the bright side of things, there is always something... I'm happy that this boy helped you to forget the past and think about the future, this is really beautiful! He gave you hope, what we

mbc242: Wow...this made me cry seriously. :( You're soooo talented! I loved it!<3
FaanGrrl: Oh my fucking gosh. This is your life story? I am seriously speechless. And so so sorry! :| I had tears on my eyes when I was watching this. Thanks for sharing . Although it's sad it makes me realize that there are a few worse situations than mine. From now on when I say or think that my life is horrible I'll think of this and take back what I say. Seriously. This is amazing, touching and most importantly sad. But, it really opened my eyes. Your like my rolemodel :)
j0aNneL0w: This is so SAD ); well thanks for this video^^..its so touching and meaningful..Yeahh life's just like that..ups and downs..
xxJBxxLuverxx: Cutting really was kind of dumb. I mean, I would never think about that and I've been through much worse. I'm not saying what happened to you wasn't bad, but it's not "the end of the world, I'm gonna kill myself" kind of thing. I'm not trying to be rude or anything, I'm just saying.
prettyinpink987: xxJBxxLuverxx- when i cut, I NEVER thought of killing myself, self harm was a way of inflicting pain on myself to escape the emotional stuff, I never tried to hit a nerve to die, or thought "hey lemme cut deep enough to kill myself" thats the biggest assumption about cutting, is that its always about killing yourself. Its not.
xoxshesolovelyxox: alright sorry but i had to say something. is it your business? (ha its weird of me to say that when im egtting in this, but thats not the point) and why did you compare it to yourself? Its not about you. And leave her alone. She hit a point in her life when she made a mistake. leave her alone. Shes not dumb. she stopped and im proud of her... this is amazing video and im happy you gpt your life together.
xxJBxxLuverxx: Whoa, whoa, whoa. I never said that she was dumb. I said it was a dumb thing to do. Smart people can do dumb things. I also didn't say it was about me. I'm well aware it is about her. I was just saying. What the heck? She made a video. The video happens about to be what happened to her. You can post comments on videos. I said something about what happened. Don't say stuff like that to me like I'm a bad person. I'm proud of her, too. I probably wouldn't have been able to stop.
xoxshesolovelyxox: me too. i wouldnt be able to stop. this video has a great moral. thanks for it.
mojo9626: I think that your story is sad yet amazing You went from this picture perfect life to rock bottom, but you brought yourself up again....and I wish I had your stamina for being there for yourself....no I have never cut or hurt myself....but I have changed into someone I'm not for a reason I can't even remember....and my friends have noticed too they wont tell me but its there in there eyes....an your story is inspirational....thank you
peacelovepurse667: this is a great video and i added it to my favorites list... Just one question... How did you make the video?
xnarnianwarriorx: This made me wanna cry SO BADLY. Your story, just made me extremely sad. Thank you for sharing, that life cannot be a fairytale. You have such amazing talent. I'm just so sorry. But I'm happy you've stopped cutting, and that you're now happier. Beautiful, and thank you so much for opening all of our eyes with your story. ♥
