Re: Debunking myths of self harm - February 5th 2014, 09:28 PM

I do like how Jenny put "self harm is cutting" as a myth. A lot of people do think of it is as only cutting and don't realize it's not only cutting. But of course, if you think it's best in the intro, that's okay too. I agree with defining what self harm actually is somewhere in the article, though, either in the introduction or conclusion, just so after saying the myths of self harm, we know what self harm actually IS.

I also like how you used that whole myth about self harmers being able to just stop whenever they want. Maybe to expand on that section a bit, you can explain why it is so addictive?

But I'm probably rambling anyway. I do like where you're going with this and it definitely will be great once expanded upon.


Do you ever get a little bit tired of life
Like you're not really happy but you don't wanna die
Like you're hanging by a thread but you gotta survive
'Cause you gotta survive
