We need your story!
If you’ve found a creative and positive way to overcome self-harm, then sharing your story is a great way to contribute to Heads Above The Waves.
- By sharing your experiences, you’re contributing to the Heads Above The Waves community – letting people know they’re not alone and that it does get better.
- Someone else reading about your experience might inspire them to find their own positive way of coping.
- As well as helping others, you might find that writing your story is a good way to reflect on everything you’ve been through, and how far you’ve come.
