there is this thing called the butterfly project. you draw a butterfly when and where you want to cut. you let it fade away and when it fades completely away you have set it free into the wild. i did this when i tried to stop cutting and it really helped me. i havent cut in almost 2 and a half years. you can also look up the butterfly project on you tube its helped me a lot.

i also cut. i recently started this thing called the butterfly challenge.. idk... you may have already heard of it. many of my butterflies have been killed already but im still trying :/ RULES:Whenever you feel like self-abusing, like cut, grab a pen or marker and draw a butterfly somewhere on your arm. You can name these butterflies after people who care for you or who you care for. You self-harm, and you kill your butterfly. If you have more than one butterfly, you cut one, you kill them all The challenge is you cannot self-harm for as long as the butterfly stays on.
No cheating either. No scrubbing, no drawing faint lines either. The butterfly must fade naturally. Pretty simple, right? Wrong. The temptation kills you. Makes you want to scream and rip out your hair, grab a knife and go to town. This butterfly is the physical embodiment of will power. Dont kill your butterfly. I know many people dont read this blog, but in hopes that one day people do, my hearts go out to those going through with the butterfly challenge. Its hard, but hopefully youll make it.
THIS DOESNT WORK FOR EVERYONE BUT ITS AT LEASE WORTH A SHOT, right?

i can't really do the butterfly thing...i'm in college and we can't have anything on our arms......at least with a cuy i can cover it up.....if i drew on my arms, i'd get in trouble....but thanks for trying

honestly it can be anywhere on your body. its still the same concept. Arms, legs, face, foot, butt cheek, tummy, hands, neck, whatever.
