Recognize self harm more. To learn more about it in school.

Created by A.P. on January 13, 2013

Self harm is almost completely unrecognized. People have no idea how bad it actually is. Most people who commit suicide, have dealt with self harm in their past. I've met people who have cut, burned, starved, bruised, etc. I've dealt with cutting in my past, I'm clean for awhile now. This hardly ever gets recognized, I think health classes in school should teach students more about this, the dangers, just everything that could possibly happen. This is so sickening to me. This HAS to be recognized. I'm 14 years old, and I'm worried for other peoples lives.
