Q.What is To Write Love on Her Arms? A. TWLOHA is a non-profit movement dedicated to presenting hope and finding help for those struggling with depression, addiction, self-injury and suicide. TWLOHA exists to encourage, inform, inspire, and also to invest directly into treatment and recovery.
On May 13, 2008 I wrote this poem on the To Write Love On Your Arms page:
You might not think I have a hard life but you don't have the taunting call of the knife. I hear the voice each and every day. It takes all my strength to resist away. I want to give into the call. I find myself holding it and staring at the wall. Yet, each time I place it back where it belongs, even though I wish to be gone. I write the word "Love" upon my arm. It's better then causing myself harm. I hear the evil till all hours of the night, but I hope to always continue to fight.
The day after I posted that poem a young girl from England, Fiona, messaged me and told me how inspirational my poem was for her. How this made her have second thoughts about creating the scars on her arms. We started talking back and forth for days; telling one anothers stories. Fiona and I are still close and talk when we can. We are advocates of this group and we were every day spreading the word to those around us, bettering there understanding of the suffering people go through.
I am just like you. In April 2009 I stopped cutting. In June 2009 after not cutting once and almost attempted suicide. The only thing that stopped me that night was a boy that stayed up with me the whole night, he is my guardian angel. I have been with my angel for 6 months and he are going strong. I haven't cut of attempted suicide since that night.
I am just like you. Don't be afraid to reach out. Message me if you need to talk. Everyone needs a guardian angel sometimes. Rescue is Possible.
I created this organization Dear Teen to help others and bring together people just as TWLOHA does, you should come check it out and send a request! :)
TWLOHA is amazing, there so inspirational, theyve helped me through soo much.
and to anyone who feels alone, or as if noone cares about them, trust me alot of people do, i care about you.
and if any of you just want to drop all your problems on someone, im always here, you can add/message me or whatever, don't worry i dont mind if you do.
cuz i know when i was struggling with deppression, and cutting, i just wanted to tell somebody everything.
i didnt want to tell anyone i knew, because i was scared they would judge me, and i didnt wanna tell someone random, because i was scared they'd get annoyed.
and if someone would have been there for me through all those hard days, it might have been easier.
if you feel like you dont have a friend, i can be one. if your ever feeling down, or upset, ill try to make you happier.
feel free to just tell me everything and anything i dont mind.
Well my friend just committed suicide, not that long ago. And this foundation is the world to me. I wrote a poem for it, and the name can be twloha.
Millions Cut Millions Cry Millions Die Everyday, Every year People kill themselves They feel unloved They feel alone Give them a hug Show them love Write love Give a heart Let them see Your always there Show them That love is out there That there is others That will be here As a shoulder to cry on Or ears to listen to their stories Give a number Dial it up Talk on the phone Until your face Is nothing more than a smile Show someone cares Show a heart is there To love them like a sibling Treat them like the best Show them that Love is a movement That everyone is willing to follow
what you guys are doing is absolutly amazing i had a bad bad problem with cutting for several years it affected me and a lot of the people around me trough a huge struggle and Christ i have been cut free for almost a year i dont even think about it now unless i see my scars im not ashamed only proud that i left that behind me but now i really wanna help i wanna tell me people what i so desperetly needed to hear but never did since no one understood my situation any one out there that needs love and support who ever just message me i want to help you because any one can quit this life really is worth living and if i had to go trough what i did to help at least one person it was worth it

I am so thankful that this organization exists, I only wish it could've been around 10 years ago.
This will be the 10th anniversary of my brothers death.
He commited suicide because he got his girlfrien pregnant and he was 15.
I've never thought about killing myself, i've seen the pain it puts a family through.
I can only hope that everyone learns that with a bit of help and someone to talk to, every problem can be over come.
When is TWLOHA day?
Being 10 years since my brother died, I would like to help out and do something to raise awarness at school.
I'm so glad that this organization exists, its sort of comforting to see how many people understand why people cut and have addictions and want to commit suicide. i used to cut and i almost attempted suicide. i used to go to a psychologist for about 4 years, when i finally got the courage to tell her that i would cut myself and i wanted help 'cause it was so hard for me to stop, her only reaction was, "people who cut only do it for attention, please don't do it again." i refuse to ever go back to that psychologist again. As of right now though, i haven't cut in 6 months even though i think about it all the time because I've been having a rough time this past month.
I love you guys and everything that you're doing, you've helped me so much. <3
