So, it's nearly that time of year again, self injury awareness day is only a few weeks away, and every year I say i'm going to do something to raise awareness but I never do, but this year i'm determined! I want to start thinking of ideas and stuff now so when it comes to it I know what i'm doing, so if anyone has any ideas on how to raise awareness they would be greatly appriciated!

If it was me id put up posters where you work/study (sorry, i dont knownyour age), because id not be able to do anything that drew a lot of attention to myself. If you dont mind drawing attention then theres probably a lot more you could do

I know, I'm 17 so at college, i've already spoken to my tutor about this and she says we can do something but we need to work out what, I would have had more confidence but my tutor's not actually gonna be in that day so i'm slightly freaking out about it now :/

I am glad someone is talking about raising awareness for SIAD. Unfortunately, I don't know how to raise awareness either, but I make it a point to wear something orange every March 1.
I need to find something orange to wear too O.o I know, I was woeing about all the years of bullying i've had due to self harm and how people really don't understand it, and then I realised it was nearly SIAD and I should do something about it. Thought i'd ask for ideas now so I can talk it through with my tutors and try and do something at college...

I try to wear something orange but the weather is useually cold which means that I end up wearing an orange t-shirt over a long sleeved top. Sometimes I forget though.
Most of the time I remember.
The world is just illusion always trying to change me.
You will find wonder wherever you can, and spread joy whenever you are able.
I felt emotions of gentleness and pleasure, that had long appeared dead, divide within me. - Frankenstein.
I'll wear something orange even though I hate the colour, how's that for dedication?
hahahaha that is EXACTLY what I was thinking. Orange.... not my color
"It is the stretched soul that makes music, and souls are stretched by the pull of opposite – opposite bents, tastes, yearnings, loyalties. Where there is no polarity – where energies flow smoothly in one direction – there will be much doing, but no music."
Im thinking about maybe mentioning it to someone at college, they have this thought of the week thing in the student bulletin and they often mention stuff like internet safety day. I dont think theyd mind putting it in at all. Just hope they dont ask too many questions

I was kind of thinking of doing one of those awareness posts on facebook, kind of like the ones they do for cancer and other issues. I usually don't like them, but I find a lot of people actually share them I just don't know exactly what to say.
They tell me I'm killing myself. I tell them, I'm keeping myself alive.

How about wear a SIA wrist band or draw the ribbon on yourself and answer what it's for when people ask... Or you could make artwork regarding SI and allow people to ask why you are doing so. This year is the first time I am starting to be open about my self injury, and the reason I opened up is because my friend was open to me about her SI. Maybe be extra loving on SIAD or just out of character.... And don't be afraid to tell people why! :) <3
I have another idea! Make a video telling about your experience with SI and post it to YouTube so you can try to help others who have or currently are SI. I watch a lot of people's stories on YouTube to try to help myself get happier and not triggered when I'm upset :( if you don't want anyone to know who you are, you can blur the picture and alter your voice :).... This is just an idea that is not meant to offend anyone!
I emailed my head of year. For a friend, obviously
