Just a note to anyone who comes here to this page:
I do not deal with self-injury or self-harm issues. However many of my online survivor friends over the years have and do deal with them. So it was my wish to create a healing resource page on this topic. I have never been a member of the few online support communities that I posted towards the bottom of this page, so I cannot recommend them from any personal experience. If there is anything that you think I should add or delete to this list, please let me know.
