well let me ask you a question, u want to releive your pain but yet you just give your self more pain? that dosnt make scence. i did a report about cutting and its very dangerours, this is a true story: this girl was in the bathroom and her little sister was asking her y she was in there for a long time, the other girl didnt answer her, so the little sister called her dad and the dad came home, and took the doorknob off and there she was laying down on the floor, not breathing, she cut her self but she cut a vane open too deep and died. there is other ways to releive stress, like punch a pillow, scream in a pillow, find some new friends that dont cut that can help you, see your school councilor, buy a punching bag and punch that, just STOP CUTTING, NO ONE WANTS YOU TO DIE!!!!! if you have anymore questions just email me at catlover334@yahoo.com and we can talk about some other stuff
Well, you can't get help if you don't go see a doctor. If you refuse to tell your parents and refuse to see a doctor, then you aren't really interested in getting help, are you?
I feel you should cut deeper and more often so the world will have less freaks like you!!!
My sister was like that. I just made sure I was there for her daily. What I'm trying to say is, you have to tell someone who can help. It doesn't have to be an adult, but get someone with an outside perspective who can help you.
?Good luck. = )
um...okay i have that problem to iv'e been struggling you need to talk to someone who will still allow you to cut but still helps you along the way trust me you cant just stop and really i didnt want to stop ethier but trust me it helps
if you don't want help why are you writing on here? I don't understand that part of this. You sound like a person that is sane, and is jerking our chains.
If you want to die to end it all why take four years to do it?
you see I have been down this road and I better then you understand it now.
your life is not bad, your not bad, your not anything until you want to be. So what is it you want to be?
you can write to me if you want to, but you will have to have answered the questions before i will write back and talk to you about this form of disorder. the next step is yours.

I am an adult and yes, I DO UNDERSTAND. Believe it or not (I'm 49), it's been going on for decades. For some strange unknown reason, this cutting thing is like releasing pain from your body -- as though it will be released. Like, letting a demon out of your body in order to feel good. I don't know how else to explain it.....but I KNOW what you are talking about. I never did it but my niece (whom I love dearly) did it a lot when she was a teenager (she is now 21 and doesn't do it anymore) ---but because I do not like to judge UNTIL I research, I researched it BECAUSE I didn't understand it. Most parents (good parents) will research it to understand it. It' not anything NEW and it's really sad that you're going through this. The thing you need to remember, is you are going to be leaving a LOT of scars on your body and believe me.......you are probably (hopefully) not going to do this the rest of your life -- you will be interviewing for good jobs, etc. later on and you'll have to always cover your arms (or wherever you are cutting) in order to impress people. Try to think of the longterm and not the NOW. Try to think of the positive things in your life and not the negative. Remove the nasty people from your life (trust me, I did and I'm a LOT less stressed surrounded by people who appreciate me as much as I appreciate them).....I'm NOT a counselor in any way whatsoever but my sons (both adults now) -- they always did and their friends always came to talk to me with problems......I would NEVER judge someone as I haven't walked in those shoes. You are one of MANY. You do need to get your head together though -- life isn't as bad as you think it is -- I've lived through hell and back -- believe me - you'd freak out if you knew HALF of it......but my life is good now....AND I'm broke!! But I know what's important now and what isn't important.
I cut too. i've been cutting for almost 13 years, for pretty much the same reason as you. I'm at the point now, where I want to stop but can't. I now understand that it is not a healthy way at all, to deal with things. But for a long time it was the only way I knew how. I didn't have anyone in my life that gave a crap about me and I still don't. I still cut, even though it doesn't have the same effect anymore,it's the only thing that calms me down when I'm angry. I really don't know what to tell you other then tell someone you trust. If you don't you might end up like me. I'm 25 years old and have major issues with dealing with my emotions, I never learned how to express myself in a healthy way. And the older you get the harder it is to ask for help. I wish you good luck and hope that you have someone in your life that will help you and love you.
