self harm advice~



self harm:
The deliberate non-suicidal injuring of one's body.

self harm is something even i was once involved in. i suppose it helps, but in the long run it will only make you feel worse, looking at the scars imprinted into your skin.
and although it is hard to quit, i thought of a solution, an easy way out.

i want you to draw a stick figure somewhere on your body and i want you to name it after someone you love. every time you cut, that person dies. the only way for that person to survive is by you keeping him/her alive by keeping the blade away. if you ever feel the need, use a pen and draw a line where you usually would insert the blade to protect this person.
instead of hurting yourself, grab a big tub of ice cream, a spoon and sit in your bed watching soppy films that make you stop thinking about bad things, build a giant blanket fort, eat junk food and play video games, just do something that makes you happy.

i don't know if this was much help to you, but it helped me a lot and it was my way out. please, try for me.

you're beautiful,
beth x
