Twitter user @thelovespreader made an amazing video for people to watch then they are feeling the urge to self harm.
She encourages us to resist the urge to self harm, as it will get easier and easier for us to stop the more we resist the urge. The first time we resist the urge is the start of it getting better. If we can do it once, we can do it again and again until we've fully recovered! :-)
The also talks about what to do instead of self harming;
- Talk to your friends/family.
- Watch one of your favourite movies, eat snacks and chill.
- Clean your room whilst playing some music - a great way to distract yourself!
- Draw, paint, be creative - it's a great way to release your feelings and emotions.
- Embrace your feelings - it's ok to cry. Cuddle up in bed, cry if you need to, release all of your negative energy and relax yourself - don't let it build up.
- Think of all of the people that have ever been kind to you - imagine that they're surrounding you with love and kindness.
I really enjoyed this video, and I hope everyone else does! Make sure you follow her on twitter. She's such a kind and beautiful girl, who is spreading love to those who need it. Thank you!
