I self-injured for 15 years. It could get to the point that you accidentally cut too deep one time and need stitches, or worse...

That's what happened to me. I always did it secretly but it progressed and I started doing it harder and I needed stitches in my arm.

I know the pain you're feeling. You need to find a way to talk about your feelings.

If you feel comfortable talking w/ your mom or bf, then yes, please do that. You need to be in therapy. Self-injury is an addiction and it's not an easy one to overcome.

Cutting yourself is no good and I would tell you that you should tell you mom and your boyfriend. I don't see how you could get into trouble becuz of cutting. They would probably try to get you help. I really don't think that they would be mad. You aren't alone. If you ever need to talk I'm here. I used to cut. I don't anymore but I know what its like. Please don't do it anymore. It won't solve anything. I know that it gets stress out and helps you feel better but it doensn't fix the problem. I know I've been there. My email is elmoeloveselton@yahoo.com if you ever need to talk

I have cut myself from time to time.If you cut to deep you could possibly kill yourself or get infections.There are plenty of things that can make you feel better ,like doing things you love to do.Tell your boyfriend and your mom about you cutting yourself when you are ready.Just sit them down and tell them "i started cutting myself again", and tell them why.Yes-You could get into trouble like be put in a mental hospital.A better way is to get a therapist to talk to.

If your boyfriend and mother are clued in rather than clueless, what may finally happen is that you will get the help you need before something goes terribly wrong.

You cut because you are angry or sad and the cutting makes you feel guilty, which makes you feel angrier and sadder, so you cut more, and feel angrier and sadder so you ... know how the rest goes.

I don't understand why girls these days like to hurt themself. What you need to do is find out why you have emotional anger or sadness. You should write down how you feel that might help to get rid of the anger instead of hurting yourself. I think you should only tell your mum about this problem because in time your boyfriend is going to dump you as it will be to much stress on him, specially if he is young boy. Young people like to enjoy there life and have fun, not to have someone around that is trying to find attention. Please talk to your mum about your problems and if you can't maybe you need to see someone that can help you such as your doctor or counsellor. l hope everything works out well for you and don't hurt yourself its not worth going down that path.

Use ice instead of a razor, it works really well.
I use it when I feel really low.

Cutting yourself doesn't do anything but cause more physical and emotional pain.ou should tell your mom and your boyfriend.They will try to get you help if they really do love you.You won't get in trouble for cutting.They love you and hopefully understand what you are going through.My best friend,Amber,cut herself since she was 11 (she is 14 now) and still cuts herself.We tied to tell her family,help her,but no one would listen.She tried to commit suicide twice and,thank God,failed both times.She stopped talking to everyone she loved because they tried to help her.She hought they were butting into her life.That it was none of their buisness.It was.I am going to call her mom and tell her everything.Her family didn't listen to me and didn't beeve me.It's just a matter of time before she does succeed in killing her self.I don't want this to happen to you.Please,tell them,before this story is about you...
