Understanding Self Harm
Why Can't You "Just Stop"?
After awhile, self injury gets addicting. And its scary because you don't notice how fast it takes over. Because of the endorphin rush, self harm becomes much like a drug or alcohol, distracting its victim from life and creating a temporary escape. This makes recovery very challenging but with love and support from others who care, it is possible for everyone.
Why Stop?
Self harm is a temporary fix. it scars up your body and causes major regret later in life. It tears your self esteem down and makes it harder in the long run. Tell me your reason for stopping, a picture some how describing your reason is greatly appreciated but optional.
Picture Criteria/Ideas
Submit a picture that will help or inspire others or a picture of your self while telling me why you want to recover. Just be creative. Your photo submission doesn't have to be exactly like the example but something like it. :)
