My Recovery Giveaway!

I know I’ve been promising this for ages and it might be a bit of anticlimax but I can’t afford a really extravagant giveaway so I hope y’all appreciate my intentions :-) 

In the box:
- Cocoa butter cream, for fading self-harm scars.
- A butterfly tattoo, to use in a similar way to The Butterfly Project.
- A non-metal hair elastic. When I was in hospital, I would use this in place of cutting by snapping the band against my skin - it gave some release without actually harming myself.
- Nail dip usually used to prevent nail biting, but it’s incredibly useful for stopping purging if you use it.
- A teddy, just for comfort.
- A de-stress facemask.
- A set of bath bombs, to treat yourself and give yourself a pampering.
- A small canvas to paint on when you’re in need of distraction. 
- (Not pictured) A set of dot stickers, similar to the ones I use, that you stick around the house and when you see an item with a sticker, you pay yourself a compliment until it becomes a natural habit.

I’ve tried to make the tool kit unisex :-) 

I know this isn’t anything cool like an iPhone or some cool clothes, but these things and the techniques you can learn from them really helped me in recovery and I hope they can do the same for you. These items aren’t expensive, and they’re available probably wherever you are, so if you don’t win, but you can see how these items would help you, I urge you to buy a similar recovery tool kit :-) 

In order to be entered, just reblog and you can reblog as many times as you like to up your chances because I’llbe picking via a draw. It’d be nice if you follow me, because if you’re in recovery and wanting to win this, I think my blog could help you, but it’s not a necessity :-)
