Today is Self Injury Awareness Day (SIAD) !!
This happens on March 1st every year and focuses on increasing education and support on a misunderstood problem.
When someone causes a deliberate self injury or harm, the action is a indication of emotional distress such as fear, stress ,anxiety etc.
People who self injure may try to hide their injuries. Their clothing may not fit the season.
Other signs include :
- Unexplained cuts, burns or bruises
- Inability to handle emotions
- Avoiding relationships
- Problems with relationships
- Issues at home, school or work
- Poor self-esteem
Resources and help are available to support and trust self-injury.
Seeking a professional consultation is a first essential step.
Let's all try to reach out to somebody if you see the signs, a friendly chat could help someone's life !
Thank you dear girls Marce and Deepa for bringing us together for raising awareness through Collab.
Here's my contribution showing the orange ribbon for SIAD , lending hands for anyone in need of help.
