I don't get myself?!


Question: I don't know what's up with me. I'm 17 and have been cutting for 4years. Sometimes I just feel really bad and I don't know why? I get this thought in my head that its the only way to feel better. When I get like this I try and not 2 think about this. After I cut I feel better then bad again. I feel worse 4 doing this 2 myself. I don't know if I'm depressed or not. I will be happy for a week and feel great. Then I feel so bad. I laugh and smile I don't get this?

Aww honey, I'm sorry. I think u might be bipolar. I think this b/c my friend was the same way and turned out she is. I going 2 give u a link that tells u what it is.http://www.bipolar.com/ I'm dead serious please stop cutting urself. Its very dauangerous. I know what ur think this girl does not know what is she talking about. Believe me I know more then u think.

You could have a bipolar disorder. Since you're cutting yourself, you should see a psychiatrist.

ooo honey ....please dont cut yourself your ruining the only body u have and the scars will last forever. Please stop..and if u cant get help i beg u

The best thing to do is to talk to a live person about it. School counselor, your doctor, a therapist--someone qualified and trained to help you.

Cutting yourself you realize is not healthy, and you are looking for help. That's why your question here. When you talk with a trained and qualified person about what you're going through, they'll be able to give you great insights as to why and how to help yourself stop.

Good luck!

I feel you should consult with a trained professional. Therapy isn't so bad

Cutting? As in slicing up your skin voluntarily with a razor blade????

You've been doing this for FOUR YEARS and you haven't sought out help from your doctor at all??????

To answer your question, YOU DON'T HAVE THE CAPABILITY TO "GET" YOURSELF BECAUSE YOU AREN'T A MEDICAL PROFESSIONAL. Just like you don't have the capability of giving yourself a hysterectomy - you don't have the capability of dealing with the CUTTING issue. You HAVE to see a doctor ASAP.

Cutting is also a sign of Borderling Disorder.

Go see a doctor, only thing there is to do. The internet won't help you and you can't help yourself, only a doctor can.

These answers all seem to point in the right direction and that is to seek some professional help. The only thing I can add is that it sounds as if your mental well being runs in cycles
and can be easily swayed one way or the other by external influences. I would take inventory of all that is part of your life-ie., diet; friends; past traumatic experiences etc. and see which ones evoke some deep-seeded feelings that seem to be unresolved.

you need to talk to a psychiatrist ASAP
