To Write Love on Her Arms began in Orlando, FL in February 2006 as a written story, the true story of five days spent with a friend who was denied entry into a drug treatment center. The story was a look at those five days, and the t-shirts were printed and sold initially as a way to pay for the friend's treatment.
She has known such great pain; haunted dreams as a child, the near-constant presence of evil ever since. She has felt the touch of awful naked men, battled depression and addiction, and attempted suicide. Her arms remember razor blades, fifty scars that speak of self-inflicted wounds. Six hours after I meet her, She is feeling trapped, two groups of "friends" offering opposite ideas. Everyone is asleep. The sun is rising. She drinks long from a bottle of liquor, takes a razor blade from the table and locks herself in the bathroom. She locks herself in the bathroom. She cuts herself, using the blade to write "FUCK UP" large across her left forearm.

[link] A Message From Sylnn
I found out about TWLOHA just a few days ago and it really touched me. I wanted to bring this to everyones attention. Depression is serious, and being it only one day till Valentines day I wanted to get this out there. Valentines Day is one of the most depressing days of the year. I wanted to let people know that youre not alone and that there is help if you need it. I know this may not be the best article written, but I wanted to share it with everyone.
I will write love on my arm today in support, and I think everyone else should too. Pass this message on and spread the word. Show your love.
Love is the Movement
Look up. Remember the stars.
**If you have any questions dont hesitate to send me a note, comment here, or comment my journal. I will do my best to answer it.

must have forgot to mention that, haha but ya. the point was to take away the fuck up part and show that she was loved, therefore writing love on her arm instead of fuck up.
