Black Ribbon

Today, the 30th of November, is self harm awareness day. It has become quite well known over social networking sites that, if you have ever self harmed or ever had an eating disorder, you should wear a black ribbon tied to your wrist for the day (if you don't have a black ribbon, then you can just draw it on with a marker/felt tip). This is to raise awareness for topics such as cutting, binging, purging, fasting, burning, etc. I just wanted to make this post to remind those of you who have ever self harmed or had an eating disorder that today is awareness day and to let those of you who haven't understand what the ribbon stands for. Thank you for reading this.
