March First. This day is for awareness of self-harm, depression, and suicide everywhere. I personally know many people who could benefit if more others knew about, and cared about, these conditions. Wear an orange ribbon! (The official color.)

Self-harm is any cutting, burning, stabbing, bruising and so on that one does to oneself. It is an unhealthy addiction, though not everyone knows that.
(Here is the Wikipedia article in case you need more information.)

Suicide and depression can be closely tied, and I think that all of this can be helped, even saving someone's life, with just a little awareness!

So, I have decided to have a contest of sorts. There are no special prizes like subscriptions or DevDollars, but don't let that turn you aside. This is a worthy cause.
Your prize for entering, is being featured by some people, and knowing that what you did helped. Please, everyone, don't turn away beacuse there is no material gain to be had.

Anyway, here are the details.

Subject: Self-harm, depression, and suicide.

Medium: Anything. Prose, poetry, traditional, digital, whatever you want.

Deadline: TBA

To enter: Post your entry, and note me or comment here with a link to the Deviation's page.

Other rules: As many entries as you want, per person. This can be about your own experinces (with self-harm suicide or depression), what you think it would be like, a representation of anything to do with it... pretty much anything you want. There will likely be a feature at the end.

Good luck to everyone, I hope you enter and this contest isn't a complete failure! Remember, it is all about CARING!
