  1. The lines Project

    The Lines Project



    Haven't done of these in a while, so I'm back. Hello ?

    WARNING - This thread contains some details that some may find triggering, it contains details about depression and suicide. Fair warning has been given.




    The lines project is a movement that has been growing for a while now, the general idea is to draw lines on your wrist in sharpie colours to show your respect/knowledge of injuries and psych traumas people can go through



    If you have been affected by any of these problems, or if you are still being affected, the main thing to do is to TALK. Whether it's to friends or professionals, it is always the first stage of getting help and getting healed.

    I encourage anyone who understands or who has experienced any of this to join with this movement, and then we can raise awareness.

    My pm is always open if you need to talk, or even just rant, don't be afraid to talk to anyone.

    Apologies for short thread, I'm a bit busy, but if I don't do this now, I'll forget. And I don't want to forget 


    Once again, if you need any help, my pm is always open if you need to talk.
     
  2. I have panic attack when I wake up and see lots of
    Notif , thinking I get SF..️
    But it's actually my friends accepting all my gifts ️
     
  3. Wrists are for bracelets and spoons are for ice cream ?
     
  4. Lol
     
  5. Nah, then ppl will think I'm gay with rainbows on my arm
     
  6. Who the hell would draw on themselves with a sharpie...this had to come from Tumblr ?
     
  7. Me before would think that when people did this was for attention. But u was like 15 when I thought this but since an event happend I completely saw it different
    Good thread m8
    And all the people that post just to be funny double think what your simple comments will affect apon people with this issue
     
  8. ? A lot of people don't agree with you... And who? Well, me for one, people who I know have struggled with things who believe that this helps and people ask about it, you can explain and raise awareness..
     
  9. Maybe they shouldn't be on the internet where ppl just don't care most of the time.
     
  10. ? This ain't about the Internet... This is about RL struggles of self-harm/depression/suicide.
     
  11. Drawing on yourself to raise awareness?¿ What happened to passing out flyers and making posters?
     
  12. Causes littering fam, with people that just leave paper anywhere
     
  13. Agree to disagree I guess
     
  14. Are you more likely to see a friend with sharpie on arm and ask why... Or read a nondescript handout?
     
  15. I've done this before. ? It's a good thing.
     
  16. Support. I don't think using sharpie is the best idea, maybe washable markers.
     
  17. Did this once. One time support granted
     
  18. He knows it isn't about the internet. His point is most on this game will not care about it.

    Many don't bother unless it effects them in some type of way. As most comments you will also see here. It's nothing agsinst you or this thread. It is just sadly how ppl are over the internet... or as 1 person said one time, ppl play this game to excape issues irl. Not deal with them on here. Which is true to an extent.
