Love Is The Movement: TWLOHA

[mandie58]

I have found out about people i go to school with, and helped them. They don't do it anymore. However, I can not seem to save myself... TWLOHA helps though, it lets me know I am not alone.

[phantomchaechae]

@mandie58 Thank you for being a difference in the world. You're right - you aren't alone. You are wonderful, beautiful, and incredibly special. Don't forget that.

[X10XemogirlX12X]

its been 25 weeks since i last hurt myself. i acually have a tattoo of the word love on my wrist now because of twloha. TWLOHA has helped me so much.

[phantomchaechae]

@X10XemogirlX12X I'm so happy for you. Stay strong. Share love.

[uniquedaydreamer1996]

im posting this on ma fb page; i LOVE IT amazing job <3 :D u got a talent for this! (: i love twloha! <3

[phantomchaechae]

@uniquedaydreamer1996 Thank you so much for your support. Always share love.

[MrApplelovin]

2 months today since I last cut :) so proud, took a lot of strength to get rid of my sharps, but totally worth it, I want to get a tan this summer, and not see all the tiny white scars! Achievable goals one step at a time xx

[phantomchaechae]

@MrApplelovin Sorry this was late, but I'm so happy for you! Keep moving forward :) Share love.

[ttlyinky]

Thank you. <3

[phantomchaechae]

@ttlyinky Thank you.

[PhotographsandSummer]

@TheDinosaur74 It's more as, writing it on your arm to knoww that you're not alone, that you're loved, and that people care about you.

[coolifyyourlife]

I wrote love on my arms this year... my religion teacher yelled at me and sent me to the office for refusing to wash it off. She said it was "advertising unholy things". I was suspended for a week for calling her an evil bitch with no consideration for others' feelings. I don't regret it one bit. TWLOHA♥

[MsEscapexthexfate]

@coolifyyourlife I admire you for doing that. That is something my religion teacher would do, but I hide my arms so she can't see the writing on them on them. I wouldn't wash it off either <3

[NEVERSHOUTBRI]

I use to cut and tried commiting suicide by drowing myself and hanging myself but i couldnt do it cause i was too scared ;/ but im okay i guess <3

[phantomchaechae]

@NEVERSHOUTBRI I'm glad. So incredibly glad. Remember that you are loved, and always spread that message of hope to others. :)

[sexy1496]

I Used To Cut But Now I'm Decidinq To Wite Love On My Arms ! (:

[phantomchaechae]

@sexy1496 I'm so proud of you! You are loved. :)

[FoxRacing981]

i dont get it. what does to write love on her arms mean?does it mean to stop cutting yourself? is cutting yourself an addiction or something?

[alylovex33]

@FoxRacing981 Yes it does kinda turn into an addiction. When people cut it's because they have emotional pain that they want to feel physically so they cut themselves.

[randomemolol]

i cut . and ui wrote LOVE across my scars .

every one thinks i am crzy now .

they never saw my cuts before but i dont hide them any more . i ignore stupid coments and i belive in things getting better . if i can do it we all can .

and make a diffrende i am organicing a walk through the sreet soon for all my friends and their friens who have self harmed or just want to help spred the word . :P

[phantomchaechae]

@randomemolol Thank you for standing out and for sharing the message of love and hope.

[RockOutLiveLoveLife]

i used to cut and everytime i find an event i cover myself and my friends who cut it in the words love our teachers may think were being dumb and other kids dont understand why weve done what weve done but this group gives me hope TWLOHA <3

[juniper9024]

i love how you pick this song <333

it fits.

[sims2cutie]

I don't cut, but basically all of my closest friends do.. I'm always here to listen, to care, and to love them. <3 Today, I put a note in my best friend's locker telling her to write love on her arms/wrists. I had love written accross my wrist, and TWLOHA written in huge letters on my left forearm. Several people asked about it, and I told about the orginization, and for them to look it up online sometime. I will always love my friends, and try to help them to stop cutting. LOVE cures.

[iloveyoubaby547]

so everyone at my school knos i cut...and they just makeit worsr by making fun of me but one day me and my friend both wrote love on our arms...

[phantomchaechae]

@iloveyoubaby547 I'm so proud of you for making the decision to write love on your arms instead. I know it can be difficult to ignore the crowd, especially when they don't understand the pain that you're going through, but you can get through this. I believe in you and I love you. If you ever need anything, please don't hesitate to send me a message.

[TheBelle413]

@iloveyoubaby547 I admire your bravery...Ignore those idiots who don't understand. You are so strong and I believe in you.

[Kitkat12370]

I got a TWLOHA braclet love it <3

[laurenG1814]

i loved it :D well done :)

[themonster1331]

I am one of thoes depressed people and nothing helps me at all!!!!!!!!!! I HATE LIVING

[phantomchaechae]

@themonster1331 Honestly, sometimes I don't like living. It's hard. Life can suck so much. Especially when it feels like everything is falling apart around you - inside of you - everywhere. But then I think about all of the good things I have. I think about the future. About my ability to spread love, make a difference, make a change for the better. If my life is this bad, then the least I can do whilst on this planet is make someone else's life better. That makes it worth it. So I keep going.

[katiecupcake3]

@themonster1331 and anyone else. If you guys need to talk to someone you can email me. wawhateveryouneed@yahoo.com Honestly, I care and when i was younger went through alot of hard stuff. Im glad im still alive. Everyday is a beautiful day.

[iloveyoubaby547]

@katiecupcake3 the world needs mooorrre people like u ... ikno i do

[somecreativename14]

@themonster1331 If you need to talk, message me. There is hope for you. I'll listen, because I love you. Hope :)

[kittenevil1002]

love is the key to unlease happiness

[zapcinzap]

I do not cut, but I do have friends who do and I am always there for them :) I will write LOVE on my arms

[phantomchaechae]

@zapcinzap Thank you for being a voice.

[madisonmelodyful]

I just told my bestfriend about my cutting. The first thing he said is 'im gonna help you'. He is amazing in so many ways.

[hapygrl13]

It may not hurt you... but it sure does hurt the ones who care for you... adn THAT is why im trying so hard to stop....

[phantomchaechae]

@hapygrl13 I'm so glad you're fighting it. If you ever need anything, please don't hesitate to send me a message. Keep fighting. Stay strong.

[mylpcnet]

it may not be feb. 13th but ive asked all my frends to write love on their arms. and my friend in north carolina has already had 20 people joining in. so monday, 45 people will have love written on their arms. i used to cut then my bf taught me how to love :)

[XeMoXful]

i cut ... its scary i guess but its something that is hard to overcome.. this movment helped me alot and i am STILL trying to overcome the urges to pick up a razor blade.

[6lost6and6wandering6]

ugh this isnt workin--plz ignore all the removed commments i was trying to put a poem i made up but im failing miserably--the sum of it was:

No matter how bad it seems, everyhting's always okay in the end.

If it's not okay, then it's not the end.

It may take time, but time makes all the difference.

[6lost6and6wandering6]

Never lose hope,

For it will always get better,

A light at the end of the tunnel,

The calm after a storm,

All will be well again.

So swim, keep on swimming

Swim or you’ll drown.

I beg you, keep swimming,

I need you here safe and sound.”

[SaturnGirlDark13]

on march fifth, it will be my best friend's half birthday. she cuts badly. she almost faints every time. she, i, and our other best friend will all wear orange armbands and write love on our arms. we all cut, and we need to make it though this.

[phantomchaechae]

@SaturnGirlDark13 You're not alone, I just want you to know that. I believe in you, your friends, and in one of the most powerful things in this world - love. You can make it through this. If you ever need someone to talk to, please feel free to send me a message.

[SaturnGirlDark13]

@phantomchaechae Thanks. I finally stopped stabbing my wrists with needles.

[soccerkickboxer911]

i wrote love across my scars an everyone just said it looked cool no one looked past the ink to see all the pain :'(

[pinkbarbie182]

@soccerkickboxer911 noone at all noticed?

[PinkieW1316]

this girl i talked to helped me think about my suicide she showed me people do care. and she deffinitly cares . she loves helping people with cutting depression or suicidal issues 412 841 1047(texting) (:

[HoZZiE109]

omg....the picture at 0:53 she is playing the song "Play Crack the Sky" by "Brand New", those are the notes for the song. i know how to play it somewhat and those are the notes haha...great song by the best band of all time..

[brooksbullock2010]

That is so good

[HoZZiE109]

wow absolutely awesome video...btw i think at 0:54 i think she is playing "Play crack the sky" by "Brand New" cuz those are the exact notes haha thats hilarious that i notice that.

[RandomShizzle123]

Had depression for a few months now, i feel like it's shifting a little bit now from anti depressants, i just bought the shirt from TWLOHA, i support them so much! <3

[cleardemond]

uhh.. i was expecting a song.. and its to write love on her arms not ear whoever that was lol. ive cut for 5 years and the only thing that has helped is Ashley Nichole Gore<3 iloveyou baby =)

[pipmorri]

i just want smeone to reply to this coz like im only eleven and i dont want to tell my mam i do cut my wrists shud i tell her or not plz reply smeone

[TerriannaUzumaki]

You should tell her so that you can get help. I almost died from cutting. You shouldn't let it get that far. I wish you luck and love.

[selenagirl14]

YOUR 11 2? NO FREAKING WAY! o.o i just turned 11 on nov 15 :D

[pipmorri]

? cool lol

[phantomchaechae]

@pipmorri Hey hun. I'm sorry this was late. Tell someone you can trust. You've told the world - the whole internet - and the next step is telling someone who really knows you. It's the hardest part, but it's the one that has the most potential to help.

[pipmorri]

living ded girl sorry to here that but its great wat ur doin

[xlivingxdeadxgirl88]

I wish TWLOHA was around earlier, my mother had depression, she was a drug addict, and she committed suicide 3 years ago today. I am avid about TWLOHA, I wear the gear, I always tell people about it, I do everything I can to get the word out that there is someone out there to help! There is always someone out there to help!

[skaterchicks1316]

This iz about the third account i made. lol(: welll I'm Domii, some of youu know me some of youu never heard of me. But i love helping people who cut themselves er sucidal people. Becuz i've been there done that and it's not easy so if you need some1 to talk to texxt me@ 412-841-1047.

[xMusicXxXlifex]

only a few people at my school particapated in TWLOHA day.. it makes me sad how many people dont know about the org. and some of those people are those who need it the most..

[ZomgItsSuffy]

i was so suprised at how much my school participated in TWLOHA day...it was just amazing. if you want to see look at my video in the video response's

[greenZebra02x]

yesturday i was the only one in my school that had love written on my arm across my scars.the ppl in my school voice different cruel opinions about cuttin and the org. my religion teacher hates the org.

[phantomchaechae]

@greenZebra02x I'm sorry to hear about that. Just know that you're not alone, even when you feel like you are.

If you'd like, feel free to send me a message with what your religion teacher said.

[pipmorri]

@greenZebra02x egnore the fukers they dont understand

[iloveEmoboyz101]

TWLOHAD today! ♥

[LoveForever408]

TWLOHA DAY 2MARO!(:

[IXxKrusaderxXI]

look there is somebody who can help you. He can save you and get you out of this hole. the only way He will help you is if you call unto Him. His name is Jesus. he died for you and rose again. he's there. you want salvation? He is the answer. and don't say you can't and it's too hard. but you make it harder by not trying. i can't say i know what your going through but i do know i was once in that hole of desperation & He pulled me out of it. just give God a chance. His son died so you can live

[someone1190]

ok then IXxKrusaderxXI i wont say that i cant or its 2 hard.....i'll tell u this instead i won't and/or refuse 2 call on a man and his son...4 help..he wants 2 abuse his children fine with me...i cant stop him. i no longer belive in the man u call god, nor jesus...they 2 me are no longer 2 be trusted...

[ceci9311]

@someone1190 He doesn't abuse his children.! What happens here is in our control. What we do are our own decisions. He decided to die for us, He didn't tell people to torture his child to death. People were stupid enough to do it. Whatever happened to you for you to think like this, I'm sorry. But it's not Their fault. Seek them for help, not for someone to blame.

[outsidepers]

Seriously I am huge fan of TWLOHA, but this not the place for you to gather converts....

[craziladi1993]

You, have the will power to do what ever you want, you cant say, "Oh i just dont know if i can." "its to hard." YOu want to stop you will! twloha is a great program that helped me find in myself the strenght to let go of my depression. you just have to find your will power to overcome your fears

[sarah1oszter]

I feel like I'm just bugging u now because u probably heard all of this before but I know u don't know me but man u'r worth it and I do the same thing u do so you're not alone the minute by minute thing and if you ever think you are you just come right back to this place and you know where to find me (but like message me so I don't like spam this nice chickas video).

[sarah1oszter]

I hope that you can find someone you can turn to and trust! The good thing is that u posted that one comment a month ago and I just red it now. Yea life still sux but u'r still surviving, you didn't give up that day so keep on holding on and don't give up now either even though it's hard. You got something. You peaked into this vid and u returned all my anoying a** messages! Just like one day at a time and b strong no mater how cheesy it is! Maybe a place to start is to tell urself u r worth it.

[sarah1oszter]

I know it gets hard and people get really discouraged when they see someone they love/care about going through so much pain or hurting them selves so sometimes they think it's better for that person to be mean or to just detach from them but it's not (personal expereince, I worked it out though). Anyways even though its not fair u have to like sensor out some of the "harcore" stuff for them so its easyer on them emotionally (wow I hope I'm making sense).

[sarah1oszter]

Ok anyways so what I'm trying to say is working through problems and stuff u have to do righ. Parents are good to have around (unless their one of the problems:() But friend wise like I have noe so I couldn't tell ya. Idk I hope some of the stuff I'm saying makes sense. In the end(if there is one) it's all you. And I like to think that proffesionals r there to give u tips on how to make life better but eventually there will be a day(when u get older or something)when ur just happy or something.

[sarah1oszter]

That's what I'm hoping for me anyways like idk time goes bye things get worse but eventually they r going to get better. Ok that was a long comment. I'm done know I think. Hope I made a bit of sense. Sorry to spam on this comment but check out my channel because on there there's a vid about depression and all that jazz. Mainly info but the comments r intresting u mingt like it.

~Sarah

[sarah1oszter]

U CAN'T be saved or u just gave up on the idea? Maybey u just don't wanna be because it hurts to try. In the end the only one that can "save" you is u'r self anyways. Others can just b there 4 u and try to help u but u have to do the work. Sorry if I was to blunt. Have a good one and good luck! Keep trying!

~Sarah

[jdugas597]

true, TWLOHA cant save everyone, but God can. No one can say that no one loves them. God loves you more than you could ever imagine. If he didn't he would not have died for you. It seriously does not matter where you have been or what you have done, because its never to late to be what you could have become.

[animadevil]

Yeah. :/

I can't

[animadevil]

I think your right.

[love4ever0123]

i love this!! TWLOHA <3

[lilykitty107]

I love this!!

whats the song called?? I've heard it before but like no one everr told my what it was called. If you could tell me that would WONDERFUL. haha.

[Twilighter7193]

"She Will Be Loved" By: Maroon 5

[JMARIE67]

I want to commend you and this movement. My road through life may have been a different journey had there had been such a movement as this when I was 15, scared, alone, broken and so very sad. I wish you love, peace, and joy in your future. All of you, I LOVE YOU!

[beep1234beeper]

do you really love everyone? the word is used too much. i say it to everyone but i dont really mean it. its sad. love is irrational and goes against logic, and once you love once its never the same after.

[phantomchaechae]

Personally, I believe that there are many different kinds of love. I think that it is possible to love everyone, but it is very rare. Love in the form of respect is what I believe in as far as other people - even people I don't know. But the interpretation of love varies from person to person.

Thank you for your comment, it's good to get the insight of other people.

[phantomchaechae]

Thank you very much for your comment and support! I wish you the best!

[loveejazz1]

i lovve this video :) i also supprt TWLOHA ♥ i just got one of there shirts :))

[phantomchaechae]

[aBrokenUniverse]

[phantomchaechae]

I'm so thankful for all of your support with this. TWLOHA is a very important organization that reaches out to people to help with a very real problem in our world. Everyone is important, everyone is loved, and that message of love - not hate - needs to be spread.

[manuelamcphee]

Thank you soooo much! Video made me cry. (good cry) I've dealt with depression on and off since the age of 16, lets ALL support TWLOHA

[lammalofa]

[1G0TP1NK8C1DB00TS0N9]

I am somebody who suffers from depression, I was born a mistake, abused in my infant years and I have not been loved for 26 years.

[manuelamcphee]

1G0TP1NK8C1DB00TS0N9 - hang-on :) UR NOT a mistake! The sun WILL come out tomorrow, so you'v got hang-on til tomorrow! and the next day and so-on Please, reach out to friends, family, kind strangers, and counselors, etc Call a suicide hotline, they can help, believe me I know, Ive been there.
