The butterfly project is a project that can aid people who self harm to resist the urges. The Butterfly Project is when you draw a butterfly in permanent marker on places that you self-harm. Then you name the butterflies after someone you love and means a lot to you. If you self-harm where the butterfly is, you hurt the person you named it after.

1. when you feel like you want to cut, take a marker or pen and draw a butterfly wherever the self-harm occurs.
2. name the butterfly after a loved one, or someone that really wants you to get better.
3. NO scrubbing the butterfly off.
4. if you cut before the butterfly is gone, it dies. if you don't cut, it lives.
5. another person may draw them on you. these butterflies are extra special. take good care of them.
6. even if you don’t cut, feel free to draw a butterfly anyways, to show your support.

Its when you draw a butterfly on yourself and write names of important people on it so if you have the urge to cut, think of the people on yourself and basically if you hurt yourself, you hurt the people on your butterfly

Drawing a butterfly on your wrist, and giving it personal meaning. A loved one's name, or a value. Allow the drawing to fade on its own, and not by any other means. Inflicting harm on yourself would mean inflicting harm on the butterfly, on the things you value. Having the butterfly die.

The butterfly project is for people who self harm. The rules are as follows:
1) the self harmed draws a butterfly where they would self harm and name it after a loved one.
2)they are not allowed to cut or on purposely wash off the butterfly, as that kills the butterfly.
3) when the butterfly naturally washed off, you write down the name of the butterfly and how long it stayed on you- eventually making a list of all your butterflies lives that you've saved by not self harming.
3)draw on a new butterfly and name it after something you love
4)repeat the process.
You can ask friends and family to draw butterflies on you aswell (it makes them special). If you have any questions, here's my reference link:

The Butterfly Project was created through a Tumblr page. The idea of this project is that people will draw a butterfly on their bodies where they usually self-harm. It is a deterrent against self-harm because you would have to kill the butterfly in order to hurt yourself. You can learn more here: http://butterfly-project.tumblr.com/
