Self-Injury Awareness Day

Event Series (See All)

March 1, 2028 All day

Self-Injury Awareness Day (SIAD) is an annual global campaign held on March 1st to destigmatize self-harm, educate the public, and support those struggling. It highlights that self-injury—often a coping mechanism for emotional distress—is not always suicidal. Participants wear orange ribbons, utilize the #SIAD hashtag, or draw butterflies on their skin to promote recovery.

WellBeings.org is a health and wellness resource, not a crisis or suicide response website. If you are in crisis, or experiencing thoughts of suicide, please call or text the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline at 988 or the LGBT National Hotline at (888) 843-4564. The service is free and available 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
