After a recent stint in rehab to treat anxiety and stress, LeAnn Rimes is showing her support for anti-bullying.
She Tweeted, "I've been reading about so many bully inflicted deaths. I wanted to show my support."

One way she's showing her support is by the butterfly drawn onto her wrist and the photo she shared on her Twitter account. The butterfly is symbolic of the Tumblr blog, The Butterfly Project, which encourases people to draw a butterfly on whereever self-harm occurs instead of cutting themselves.
The blog asks people to name the butterfly after a loved one or someone who wants the cutter to get better. Here's the deal: The butterfly mustn't be scrubbed off and if someone cuts themselves, then the drawn butterfly "dies."

The blog continues, "If you don't cut, it lives. If you have more than one, cutting kills them all. Another person may draw them on you. These butterflies are extra special. Take good care of them."
The seventh rule on the Butterfly Project encompasses drawing a butterfly anyway even if you don't cut. "If you do this, name it after someone you know that is suffering right now, and tell them. It could help."
In the butterfly state of mind, LeAnn also retweeted a message: “How does one become a butterfly?" she asked."You must want to fly so much that you are willing to give up being a caterpillar.”
