The Butterfly Mission

[break the dayx3]

-The Butterfly mission is something I heard about on myspace, it's where you draw a butterfly and if you si, you killed the butterfly. If you make it through without si'ing, the butterfly lives (as the pen, or marker starts to wear off) the goal is to make as many butterflies as you can live. And just keep drawing over them as they fade away. I thought it was a neat idea.

sounds like a good way to keep yourself from SI'ing... thanks for sharing!

That sounds like a really good idea (although, instead of "killing" the butterfly, you could draw it as a catapiller because it's back to step one, or the beginning, and ready for a new start). Or you could draw a lot of pictures of butterflies and put them on a corkboard, or a wall, or fill a binder with paper, and draw a butterfly in it.

It's a good idea, I think I'll try it out

I'm amazed by the things people think of.

If you're in enough pain that you need to cut, a butterfly drawn on your hand isn't going to stop you.

Eh, whatever. As long as it's helped somebody out there then I support it.

Synesthesia, even when I'm at my worst and feel very urgy, even the smallest, most insignificant thing can help me resist urges.

Everyone's wired differently. Glad to know it helped somebody.
