| | | | | Self-Injury: You are NOT the only one. |
Wednesday, March 1, 2008 is SI Awareness Day.
"We are male and female. We are artists, athletes, students, and business owners. We have depression, DID, PTSD, eating disorders, borderline personalities, bipolar disorder, or maybe no diagnosis at all. Some of us were abused, some were not. We are straight, bi, and gay. We come from all walks of life and can be any age. We are every single race or religion that you can possibly think of. Our common link is this: We are in pain. We self-injure. And we are not freaks."
I cut for three years.. I have a few relapses every now and then. When I was afraid to use a razor because I didn't want any one to find out about it, I would burn myself with a flame and candle wax.
Do not judge us. This is the only way we can feel like we can cope. And all though I stopped three months ago (after breaking my one year streak yet again..), it's still a struggle not to go back to do it though I can tame the "beast", so to speak, better than some people and others can tame it better than I.
If you know someone who is an si, please do your best to help them in whatever way you feel is fit. Even if that means telling an adult. They may become mad but in the end they will thank you. Trust me.
