Health
The first time I cut myself, my mum and dad were in the kitchen, I did it in front of them. I just got a knife and cut my hand. I felt really pressured and really stressed. There's nothing I can pinpoint, I was just depressed. To be honest, this is going to sound really strange but it was just this release. I didn't understand what I was doing I just knew it was wrong and something I didn't want to talk about.
Collins began self-harming as a teenager and did so until her early thirties.[226][62] The first time she engaged in self-harm was at the age of 13 when she picked up a knife and cut her hand in front of her parents.[227][225][63] In 2004, Collins had an abortion when she was around three months pregnant after doctors told her that her baby would most likely be born Intersex.[3] Following this, the relationship with her boyfriend began to break down and Collins recalls an incident where she slashed her hand open with a kitchen knife to deal with the pain of "grieving for [her] baby and [her] relationship".
