the butterfly project
THE RULES!!!
1:
when you feel like you want to cut, take a marker or pen and draw a butterfly on wherever the self-harm occurs
2:
name the butterfly after a loved one, or someone that really wants you to get better
3:
NO scrubbing the butterfly. it has come off your body naturally
4:
if you cut before the butterfly is gone, it dies. if you don't cut, it lives
5:
if you have more than one butterfly, cutting kills them all
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 is suffering right now, and tell them
8:
try keeping track of how many butterflies have successfully flown away. it will give you sense of accomplishment and strength
