Hi everyone!
We have noticed a big influx of self-harmers here who upload photos of their own cuts. If you are one of those people, welcome! Now, let's get straight to the point of this post. We have observed that there has been an increase in romanticizing self-harm, which is something that we are not keen on.
The /h/selfharm flair rarely had OC (original content, the uploader is the one who did the cutting), but there has been a big increase recently. The flair has shifted from "watch someone cut" to "watch my cute cut". Therefore, we want to implement the following rule:
• Comments and posts that encourage/romanticize self-harm will be removed.
We don't want people to rile each other up by commenting on how pretty a cut is. We don't want people to upload their "cute cuts :3". Romanticizing self-harm is not allowed. By enforcing this rule, we hope to reduce these kinds of interactions with all posts.
We hope you understand. If anyone needs help with stopping self-harm or is interested in alternate coping methods that are not as damaging to the body, please let me know :) (been there, done that).
Thank you for your time !
(Posting this in /h/selfharm for more visibility)

Don't be daft. You didn't know that cutting over a cut would make it deeper? Come on now... I love you and hope you can get better x

Wow that's not good. I hope you can talk to a professional about it?
A website shouldn't lead to those feelings and actions.
