i hope you find what you're looking for here. support, ideas, orange ribbons, and knowing that you are not alone!
i am currently staying super busy with my graduate school work, but i
am still sending out ribbons and bracelets in full force! so, email
away! my email address is on this page, as well as under the "orange
ribbon project" link.
stay safe!
welcome to healing the scars!
the home of the orange ribbon project
please help raise awareness for self-injury!
click on the "orange ribbon project" link to order yourFREE ribbons to pass out to people to raise the awareness of self-injury!
some other ideas:
1. write a letter to your local newspaper explaining what the day is about
2. talk to a local access TV channel and try to get them to talk about it
3. wear an orange ribbon, and TALK when people ask
4. hand out orange ribbons in your school, university counseling center, or to friends
awareness is so important! only when people understand what self-injury
is about will they start to openly talk about it, and the issue will
finally be more understood!
please sign my guestbook!!!! :)
self-injury
is becoming an all-too-common problem in the United States and
worldwide. It seems that everyone has different ideas about what
self-injury is and is not, and what can or cannot be done about it.
this page is meant to bring understanding to the issue
of self-injury, to promote awareness of the problem in hopes of gaining
better mental health laws regarding the issue, and is meant as a means
to help those who are struggling with self-injury to cope in a safe and
positive place.
please check back for updates. i am working on getting a domain name and a non-profit organization status.
this project is entirely run by donations and myself
come in, look around, stay awhile, and learn a little about this problem that is all to often ignored.
a little warning for you
please know that
some of the opinions i make in here are my own. please don't criticize
them or myself. this is all my own experiece.
my main goal of this
website is not to preach at you, but rather to try to shed some light
on the many misunderstandings that are associated with self-injury.
this site a a constant work in progress, and god-willing will expand as soon as i get some much needed time.
