The
Butterfly Project:
i.
When you feel like you want to cut,
binge, or mutilate, take a marker, pen, or sharpie and draw
a butterfly
on you hand or
arm.
ii.
Name the butterfly after a loved one
or someone you really want to get
better.
iii.
You must let the butterfly fade
naturally. NO scrubbing it off.
iv.
If you cut the butterfly before it
is gone then you've killed it. If you don't cut, it
lives.
v.
If you have more than 1 butterfly,
cutting kills all of them.
vi.
Another person my draw them on you.
These butterflies are extra special, take good care of
them.
vii.
Even if you don't cut, feel free
to draw a butterfly anyway, to show your support. If you do this
name it after someone you know who cuts or is suffering right
now, and tell them. It could
help.
