Here is a place to post your own reasons, personal or not, as to why we shouldn't start hurting ourselves again if we're trying to stop any form of self harm.
Sometimes, it can be hard to find motivation for ourselves, especially when things are really hard, but together maybe we can find some more reasons, and help keep ourselves motivated and working towards recovery :)
For example:
to wear short sleeves
to stop wasting money on bandages
because we're worth more than this.
Go On, Add your reasons!

- Being able to wear whatever you want in summer.
- To find other ways of coping, that actually help.
- To be able to feel again, good and bad.
- Because reaching your next goal just feels so damn good.

"When the planes hit the Twin Towers, as far as I know none of the phone calls from the people on board were messages of hate or revenge - they were all messages of love. If you look for it, I've got a sneaky feeling you'll find that love actually is all around.”
