I know what you mean about turning the emotional pain into physical pain!. I'm a recovering cutter!. There are lots of alternatives to cutting, like exercising!. A great website to go to when you're having a tough time is www!.recoveryourlife!.com
there are a ton of things to keep you busy and get you through it!. If you're at least 18, you can see a therapist and they cannot tell your parents!. If not, then you need to find a way to tell your mom that you need to go see a therapist!. They'll help guide you to a better way of releasing that pain!.
My therapist always compared those times to a rock being thrown into a pool!. At first, the ripples are so intense and close together, but if you can get through just a little while, the ripples start to smooth out and start to become more spaced out!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Nice mom!.
Anyway, inflicting pain on yourself is very common, but do not do it!. It's not worth it in the end!.
Go for a walk, squeeze a stress ball, or anything else but do not cut yourself!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

i know exactly how you feel!. its like its easier not to be mad or not to cry when you cut yourself because thats what you focus on!. just the pain in your wrist!. also!.!. it is kinda satisfying to see your own blood!. god, now i sound crazy!. i stopped cutting a while ago!. my dad saw it and freaked out he got really mad!. my mom wanted me to get therapy because it was really bad!. i could've killed myself!. i guess when i think of the pain i cause my friends and family by cutting myself i didn't want to do it anymore!. it was also just a cry for help in a way!. so my dad could see how unhappy i was!. the only way it will stop is if your happy!. i really think you should ask your mom if you can get therapy!. it will really make you feel better to talk to someone!. it made me feel better :]Www@Answer-Health@Com
Im sorry you are having such a rough time at the moment!. I can completely understand your compulsion to hurt yourself especially after trying confrontations!. However, i believe that the reason you think the pain is a feeling you enjoy is because it is a way of relieving yourself!. It is the relief you crave!. Cutting releases endorphins which can also be high after stressful situations, giving you a 'good feeling' afterwards!. There always seems to be something soothing in it!. However, once you start to do this, every stressful situation will be followed by cutting and it can become very addictive!.
I can understand your reluctance to talk to your mum or friends - its not something that just comes up in conversations! Have you tried talking to a doctor!? Sometimes we think things will be worse when we tell people than they actually are - are you sure your mum will 'disown' you or are you just avoiding talking to her!? If your friends are really your friends they will understand!.
I hope this helps!. Try using E45 on the scars - it helps them heal faster!. If you need to talk further, email me!.
Good Luck!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

My mom disowned me at 14 when she found out I was a cutter and had me locked up in mental hospitals and group homes till 2 weeks before my 18th birthday!.!.!. For me it was a way to deal with the pain, and every time I saw the blood come out it was like seeing my pain being released from within me!. Crying didn't help any more cutting was the only thing that made me feel good inside!. Cutting releases endorphins into the brain, the chemical that tell us we're happy!.!.!. That's why it mentally feels so good to cut!.!.!.!. I feel you!.!.!.!. Cutting formed into an addiction for me to the point where I couldn't stop!.!. When I was 17 I cut for the last time!. I thought about what I would tell people, future friends, relatives, my first b/f, employees, employers where I got my scars from!.!.!. People these days aren't stupid so lying is dumb!.!.!. Just ask your self what you want to tell people about your scars when you're 20!.!.!.!. I'm 20 and people ask me all the time!.!.!. For my first job at 17 I had to cover my arms at all times while at work!.!.!.!.!. Just think about the consequences for cutting and what you are going to tell people about your scars!.!.!. I know it's not easy to quit, but it's for the best!.!.!. and yes it is hard to find employment while having scars all on your arms!.!.!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
Ok I agree you should get some help if possible but!.!.!.!. Stop using a razor!. IF you want pain I have a perfect means that I have used and my therapist was thrilled when I stopped tattooing myself and did this!. Ok she was a little wacko but here it is!.!.!. I pierced my nipples!. It hurts like heck!. Make sure you use sterilized needles and then clean your nipples up with some ointment after you remove them!. No one can see where you did it and so it won't be permanantly scarring!. They will hurt for a couple of days though so if you need some pain after that just give them a tweek and zowie they will hurt again!. I have pierced my nipples several times but at least I stopped tattooing myself!. Like I said if you need pain you should get a therapist somehow!. but this will give you some relief without people knowing!. Just clean up the blood well!.
