Description I haven’t cut in a whole month.

I feel good about that.

Thank you, butterfly project.

The Butterfly Project:
The Rules are:
1. When you feel like you want to cut, take a marker, pen, or sharpies and draw a butterfly on your arm or hand.
2. Name the butterfly after a loved one, or someone that really wants you to get better.
3. You must let the butterfly fade naturally. NO scrubbing it off.
4. If you cut before the butterfly is gone, you’ve killed it. If you dont cut, it lives.
5. If you have more than one butterfly, cutting kills all of them.
6. Another person may draw them on you. These butterflies are extra special. Take good care of them.
7. Even if you don’t cut, feel free to draw a butterfly anyways, to show your support. If you do this, name it after someone you know that cuts or is suffering right now, and tell them. It could help.

I'll do that!
And I'll probably do 2. one after a friend who used to cut, and after you.
I've never actually cut, but I always have images in my mind of me doing it.

I drew a butterfly and named it after you. It's a cute butterfly, I think. Best of luck to you

;___; Aw, thank you..I am so honored!
I'm sure that means you self-harm, too (unless I'm a dumbass, which is probable xD) - so if you do, I really hope things get better soon.

Your welcome ^^
Well, I don't self harm (your not a dumbass, I just lack proper skills to fully express myself is all) but I do think about it alot and I can't be near sharp stuff or fire too much because of my thoughts. I hope my dangerous thoughts go away too. Thanks for the concern

I've never actually cut, or have known someone who does, but I'm happy that this is helping you c: I would do it but my school doesn't like people drawing on themselves ;a;
