One person's harmful words can create an entire narrative in our brain, but that doesn't make that narrative true.

“The anticipation of grief is strange. It makes you cry in the middle of ordinary moments. It makes you nostalgic for a person who is still here. It makes every memory feel like it is happening and ending at the same time. You start to notice the way their hand feels in yours, the sound of their voice, the small, familiar things you once took for granted, and you grieve them even as you experience them.” twloha.com/blog/the-cost-…

In honor of 20 years of TWLOHA, we’re celebrating you. The supporters who have created hope and help out of this movement. Who inspire us with their stories of resilience. Belén Benitez is a supporter from Argentina who was inspired by Renee’s story, and let it carry her through some of the heaviest parts of her mental health journey. Read more of what she had to say about her journey and TWLOHA’s impact: “The blog gave me hope. I read it every night, and my last thought and wish was: I want to achieve this too. I don't know if there's hope for me, but I need to stay to see what happens next, to see if someone who has been through what I have can get their life back. I'm glad I stayed. I'm glad to be alive. I'm glad TWLOHA found me. What were the chances? I'm from Argentina, on the other side of the world. I saw it as a sign. A sign that redemption could come into my life.” - Belén

On March 30th, our Treatment & Recovery Scholarship will open for applications, and our Online Peer Support Gatherings will be expanded! Our scholarship fund was designed to help those who are struggling to pay for the mental health care they need and deserve, and can offer support for up to six months of therapy. If you’re interested in applying next week, head to twloha.com/find-help/apply and read more about what the scholarship entails and what you need to complete your application! For those exploring our Online Peer Support Program, we’ll be offering more slots for our general peer support group, opening up identity groups for those seeking to connect with others in their communities, and introducing an activity group for writers to connect with one another! Next week, you’ll be able to find all the details on these new groups, times, and register at twloha.com/peersupport. Seeing these resources grow and help people across the globe is our favorite thing. Breaking down barriers, creating honest conversations about mental health, and giving people the chance to ask for help will always be our top priority. This is just the first of a series of surprises we’re announcing this week in honor of our 20th birthday coming up on March 30th. Stay tuned for more! 🎉

I need this tonight. Thank you always, TWLOHA. ❤️‍🩹

Sometimes reframing, refocusing, and reimagining what our life can be is the most important part of healing.

Make an impact today by giving $20 for 20 years of TWLOHA. We made it our goal to make this milestone celebration our biggest one yet, and breaking down barriers for those who need help is one of the most important things we can do. We’re aiming to fund 20,000 hours of mental health care in 2026 alone, and we can’t do it without you. twloha.com/donate

Grief is inevitable when we lose someone or something, whether from death, distance, or change. It can be anticipatory, sudden, or expected. What we love dwindles, dissolves, or disappears from tangible form. The love, however, doesn’t end. But it does, in some way, take the shape of grief. We invite you to read “The Cost of Love” by Cody Clendenen, a heartfelt blog about grief and love, at twloha.com/blog/the-cost-….

@poisonedheart77 We love this so much! Thank you for being part of this story from the very beginning. It means the world that you're still here with us 20 years later. ♥️

@TWLOHA I was one of those Myspace supporters from 20 years ago & had TWLOHA on my top 10 list. I still have my shirt from back then. ♥️

To Write Love on Her Arms started small. About as small as something could. It was a story and an attempt to help one person. It was a Myspace page and a box of t-shirts. 20 years later, this story has turned into a movement. A lifeline for millions. A bridge between hope and help. 🎊Save the date to celebrate: March 30 🎊 Throughout this week leading up to our birthday, we’ll be revealing all the excitement and things you can expect to get hype about as we honor 20 years of hope and help. There’s something for everyone. 💙 Get a head start on the party by helping us reach our biggest goal yet—20,000 hours of mental health care funded in 2026 alone. Donate $20 for 20 years, or make an even bigger impact by becoming a TWLOHA Blue Monthly Donor: twloha.com/donate

@FirestormRebl Thank you so much for being part of this and for honoring your friend and everyone we've lost. Your support means more than you know, and we're grateful to be in this work alongside you. 🧡

I have followed @TWLOHA for a while now, so when I came across this fundraiser today, I knew I needed to participate. Not just for me, but for my friend and everyone else who we have lost.

Earlier this year, I lost a dear friend of mine to suicide. You don't truly know how devastating it actually is until you lose someone you know from it. Mental health advocacy has always been a big thing for me. Even moreso now... give.twloha.com/firestorm

You are allowed to feel conflicting feelings and not have to downplay any of them. You can feel joy and grief simultaneously. You can feel disappointed and hopeful. You can feel worried and excited. It’s not a betrayal of one to allow the other to exist. You are multi-dimensional, and so are your experiences. Don’t water down, ignore, or dismiss any of what you’re experiencing for the sake of simplicity.

Your existence matters. We're glad you're here.

Some truths to carry with you when stigma or shame try to narrate: You are not weird or gross or too emotional for struggling with self-injury. You are not defined by your pain or your struggle with self-injury. You do not have to keep your self-injury scars or experience hidden. You are not behind if you struggle with self-injury as an adult. You can talk about it and heal from it. twloha.com/blog/misconcep…

Thanks for being you.

What you bring to this world is more beautiful than you can possibly know.

Self-injury is how you’ve survived; it is not who you are, and it is not correlated, in any way, to your worth. Not then. Not now. Not in the future. No matter what. twloha.com/blog/misconcep…
