Help me with my question? (i don't know what to say here ha)?!


Question: Help me with my question? (i don't know what to say here ha)?
i cut myself and everyone says its bad, but i still don't think so. like when my parents yell at me i take it one step further with cutting but i don't think its really bad. i think that since i don't think its a big deal that maybe i really am being emotionally damaged from it but just don't know it, but is it possible to cut but not be affected? when i cut i may be thinking FML at first but then im numb to it, so i don't really feel like its a big emotional thing. also, i start cutting because of my feelings, but i continue because i like the look of the blood and the feeling and everything about it, so could i just be masochistic sometimes i feel like im just going crazy, but isn't it true that a real crazy person wouldn't admit it?

and also no one knows about this. i'm good at keeping this good girl don't cuss, go to church, love everyone attitude up in front of people. as long as they don't see my hips, it's all good. also, i sometimes i think im just over-reacting.

any insight is appreciated, (:
thx in advance.

hmmmmmm. if you are not cutting because of emotional pain then I am thinking maybe this is a form of OCD. Research OCDs on the internet. Does it just feel like a pleasurable sensation?
For example, I pick my nails. I pick my cuticals until thhey bleed and sometimes rip them off. And also I bite my nails until there is pretty much nothing left. I also stick my nails in my gums so it hurts. But it isnt like a pain, it is more of a satisfying feeling. Kinda like the feeling when you pop bubble wrap lol I recently found that this is actually an OCD.
I know that some people can have an OCD of scratching their skin until they bleed. Research on google about the obsessive compulsive disorders and cutting skin.



*Sigh* Not one of these again. I'm guessing your a teenager right? Stop. Instead of being a coward and running from your problems get help and confront them. And what exactly is your question here? I think you, like everyone else that "cuts" on here, just want attention

grow up



you might want to see a counselor



sorry, I really don't know what your asking, (Probably because I'm half awake lol) but I have a way or 2 to not cut yourself. 1 is to maybe punch a pillow, or punch your bed a few times if you get mad, Instead of harming yourself, hit something soft. 2 is think of nice thoughts. I do that. I think of rainbows and unicorns and(well, you get the point. ) think of nice bright lifting thoughts. don't think of anything bad. maybe call a friend and just talk to them. when my friends are depressed I always talk to them and make them laugh! and maybe your friends will too!(:



It is a problem. Please don't cut yourself. It's not mentally healthy for you to be doing something cruel to your body. Blood is meant to stay INSIDE! But whatever it is that's making you upset there are so many other ways you can approach that. But don't cut yourself!!! It's pretty dangerous because you might cut a vein. I'm so glad you're realizing what you're doing. I think the best way to deal with your problems is to talk to somebody about it! don't just try looking for something to do with yourself! you have to have a mature conversation with your parents or whoever your close to.
