Do you need someone to talk to?
Do you need to express the turmoil you're feeling inside?
Do you feel isolated and that those around you cannot understand you?
Do you want to share your 'small' achievements with those who understand how big they actually are?
This is a closed (only members can see posts) Facebook group for anybody, anywhere in the world. Any member can post and comment and other members offer what support they feel able to offer.
This is not a group run by professionals.
This group DOES NOT promote self harm.
This group is part of the efforts to remove the stigma and break down the isolation felt by people who self harm.
By helping others we help ourselves.

“I like the group because I all ways get a quick reply with positive advice and support”
“It's great to be able to open up to people and not have to worry who might see what you say!” “The group started due to a lack of professional support and has become a safe haven for understanding and support” |
“Even though I do not self harm, I find the people in the group very understanding and helpful with my depressions issues. And to be able to help others through their low times helps me through my low times. The people are honest and open about their issues, and no one ever judges you no matter how little you think it is, they do not see it that way”
