THE BUTTERFLY PROJECT
Rules:
1. When you feel like you want to cut, take a marker, pen, or sharpie, and draw a butterfly on the area where you cut.
2 . Name the butterfly after a loved one, or someone that really wants you to get better.
3 . You must let the butterfly fade naturally, NO scrubbing it off.
4 . If you cut before the butterfly is gone, you’ve killed it, & you must wash it off. If you don’t cut, it lives.
5 . If you have butterflies in different areas on your body where you cut, cutting kills all of them.
6 . Another person may draw them on you. These butterflies are extra special.
7. Take good care of them. 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 cuts, and tell them. It could help their situation.
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE TAKE PART IN THIS PROJECT IF YOU DO CUT. PHYSICALLY HARMING YOURSELF IS A TERRIBLE WAY TO COPE WITH ANGER, SADNESS, STRESS, ETC. PLEASE STOP. YOU ARE WORTH MORE THAN WHAT YOU THINK. YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL.
