I moved cities a few years ago, away from my friends. I was 14, and I relied heavily on my friends for companionship and support. Because of this, my depression, which had only ever been a nagging feeling of 'laziness' quickly evolved into self injury. After a year, and many scars, I realized I had a problem, and went to start seeking help online. By some magic, I stumbled upon this website. It's bright colours drew me in, and I started poking around, learning all I could. Eventually, I sent a message to the people that ran the website, and I found every one of them supportive and helpful, and very very friendly. They showed me their new Fact Sheets (well, they were new at the time) that were colourful and informative, and they put me in contact, through Tumblr.com, with other people who were suffering like me. They put me in a helpful, uplifting community. I'm now 19, and while I still have the urge to offer my hand as sacrifice to my over-excited cat, I'm well on the way to ending my harming addiction for good. We all have down days, and days when we'd rather call in sick than get out of bed, but the important thing to do is finding a person or a community who is willing to help you through it. While I had no friends in my new city, the people here at First Signs, now known as Life Signs, became my friends. They have gotten me through rough times, and they will continue to support me, directly or not, throughout my entire life. These are the kind of people I hope to meet when I travel to the UK one day.

This website is really good for information about self-injury, how to cope with it, how friends/family can cope with it, it offers help and advice, and it has personally helped me and my mum a lot (I self-injure). I would recommend this website to anyone who has questions related to self-injury, or who are concerned by the subject. Totally trustworthy.

Our site discusses difficult topics in a sensitive manner, and uses the ICRA rating system so visitors and parents can trust our site. Featured on the BBC and the NHS at times. Established in 2002. Not suitable for pre-teens as language is sometimes complicated, but not unaccesible.
