Answers:
not really, cutting is a way of relief for some people, thats how they deal with anxiety, trouble, fears and other stuff, and i think its wrong because you are (sounds so cheesy but true) not respecting your body, what can mean something like hate towards yourself or something so there is something wrong!.hope it worksWww@Answer-Health@Com

I think it is bad for lots of reasons!. Having had children and a couple of surgeries I realize one thing; life will give you lots of ugly scars !. !. !. why add more on purpose!. Another reason would be the risk of infection!. In this day and age of communicable diseases of every kind, and especially the MRSA bacteria that is virtually everywhere, it is very dangerous!. Your skin is your first barrier against infection and if you cut that barrier then you open yourself up to a host of infections!. I have had a MRSA infection and it is not fun!. It doesn't respond to antibiotics very well and some of the ones they treat it with are really hard on your body!. Cutting is a form of self mutilation and is not a healthy pastime!. Usually people who cut themselves have some emotional problem they can't deal with; and hurting themselves makes them feel better for the moment!. I don't think it really means a person is suicidal but I do think that if someone is cutting themselves they need help!. Counseling would be a better way to deal with the pain than harming themselves!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

If someone is cutting themselves without suicide in mind, they're engaging in more or less of an obsession or compulsion!. Kind of like torettes, some kind of itching need to self-mutilate!. It's a somewhat different category (however certainly often closely related) to suicide!. It's worth noting that a lot of people who actually commit suicide are not necessarily visibly depressed in that way!. We get an image of the emo kid cutting himself, but oftentimes the ones who actually commit suicide are "normal" people who dress normally live normal lives and have underlying depression issues!. Suicides oftentimes catch close family members and friends by surprise!. The real nature of suicide is really very easy for someone to do if they really want to do it!. Most of the time, these cutting symptoms or attempted suicides are cries for help, or even to a lesser degree a "fashionable" or "interesting" thing to do for people!.

I would even venture a guess as to say that people who cut themselves are generally not the most suicidal - not yet at least!. I think, it is such an outrageous and difficult way to commit suicide, requiring a lot of pain, bleeding, etc!. that it really falls more into the obsession / cry for help / fashion statement category!. Someone who really wants to do it, will find a more effective means - the human is very fragile the idea of attempted suicide when you think about it is kind of silly - if you wanted to do it it can definitely be done!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I dont believe cuttiing is suiciadal I think a person cuts to cut out mental pain and have physical pain!. Its differnetly a cover up for something but cutting can be addicting its not ok for any type of cutting but you wont die from small cuts either like I said it can be addicting and lke it addiction it will only become more intense if the cuts get bigger and deeper they can only get so big before that person has to go to the hospital!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I cut and i'm not suicidal!. but the scars on my arms are just a reminder of when I did it, it is really hard for me knowing they are not going away!. It makes me feel and feel alive!. I feel like i'm in control and no one can take that way from me!. It is not bad if you cut and your happy it just means you need to talk to someone, there is somthing there down deep you are listening to your self!. You need to be in tone with your self!. I hope this makes sence hun!. hang in there!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

cutting is bad because its self mutilation!. Just because it doesnt make them suicidal doesnt mean that they wont commit suicide!. What if a person hit the vein a bleed to death!. Its unlikey but probable!. They are other ways of easing stressing and feeling better!.!.!.less harmful ways!.!.!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Its still a mental issue no matter if you do it to try and kill yourself or if you do it to take your mind off other things!. Try talking to someone!. Thats helps out more then you know!.

I agree with most of what you say however I would like to ask the person cuttting, 'how does cutting make it better!? Not wanting to sound santimonius my youngest son did it for a while and then stopped, I did ask him the queationWww@Answer-Health@Com

You dont have to be suicidal to cut, people do it for different reasons!. Its not good to do it but what people dont realise is Cutting is their solution, not their problem!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

It takes away the pain, but it's still not so great!.!. scars!.!. rememberance!.!. living with it, it's just not good!. But it's not completely horrible, I guess =/ I have friends who cut!.!. It's sad for me that they do!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

You bring up an interesting point!. I actually don't know why!.!.!.could it be that we (the people who know the cutter) are being selfish and don't WANT them to be in pain, even if they aren't!?

any form of harming the yourself is not good!. you just open your self to infections and weird diseases, and of course the scars!!! so, i would keep those razors off my wristWww@Answer-Health@Com
