Colored Bracelets

The idea here is to wear bracelets of specific colors correlating to people or concepts that you strongly care about. For example, to represent my best friend, I'd wear a bracelet that is purple because it is her favorite color. Maybe my goal is to not have any slips before October. I could represent that goal with an orange bracelet. Wear as many that will fit if you want, haha.

This alternative will give you a tangible and constantly visible reminder of things that have substantial significance that will help deter you from self-injury.

Tip: Many people choose yarn for this project, but yarn deteriorates easily, especially if you plan not to remove the bracelets during bathing and other activities. I suggest taking a trip to your local craft store and purchasing a more durable material such as craft thread, which is shown below.
