have you ever heard of the butterfly project
?
The Butterfly Project has been created for self-harmers who
feel they are ready to stop and need the motivation or support to
do so. A member’s hypnotherapist, who found this idea on an
online blog and felt that it was a good idea that should be
promoted as a distraction, has recommended it.The idea is simple.
The self-harmer simply draws a butterfly on their place(s) of
self-harm and, if the butterfly fades without them self-harming,
it means it has lived and flown away, giving them a sense of
achievement. Whereas if they do self-harm with the butterfly
there; they will have to wash it off. If that does happen, they
can start again by drawing a new one
on.
