Self Harming - ASSETS/ WORK IN PROGRESS

Just like the other post about what she is seeing in the mirror. My friend did not say this but we came up with the idea together and as she knows what goes through a Self Harming individual we came up with hanging. A lot of people hang themselves because of Self Harming and them feeling depressed and worthless, and even though my friend did not have any thoughts about hanging we thought we would touch upon it because many people do either follow through with hanging or they are caught just in time.

This photograph is my friend using a scarf to hang herself because hanging victims are able to use anything to hang themselves with and the mirror photograph is of my friend putting the scarf on with her outfit and going to have a fun time. With these photographs I do find them powerful and they are a message because this is what Self Harming individuals go through everyday, they see themselves different to what others see them as, and they do need help and asking for help is a lot easier said than done for these individuals but I feel that these photographs are speaking volumes and they are powerful in a lot of ways and speak to other individuals who are suffering just as much.
