Healing Self-Injury

Welcome to the Healing Self-Injury blog!  This blog is dedicated to the idea of creating a place that people who live with self-inflicted violence (SIV), or those who care about them, can have to feel accepted, heard and supported.  Both the Healing Self-Injury web site and this blog are the continuation of The Cutting Edge: A Newsletter for People Who Live with Self-Inflicted Violence, a newsletter I began in 1990 and which will be ending shortly.  This is a time of transition.  While I am sorrowful to end the paper publication, I am very excited about the potential for creating a sense of community electronically.

To those of you who subscribe to The Cutting Edge, your final issue will be on its way in a month or so.  Some of what has been published in the newsletter over the past 17 years can already be found on the Healing Self-Injury web site.  There are also some recent new publications posted there that I am hoping will be helpful.   Please let me know what you think of them!
