I...I want to start cutting myslef...?!


Question: I...I want to start cutting myslef...?
um...im sorry, this is such a depressing thing...but i want to start cutting myself. i have to talk to someone, as i cannot face my parents, no matter how hard i try, it just doesnt come out. i know i shouldnt be one to talk, considering there are starving kids in Africa and China, and tons of other problems around the world...but for some reason, ive just had a really bad year so far. ive been so concerned about grades, ballet, relationships, etc. i mean, i have been so stressed because i just got my first B+ in my whole life, ive always gotten straight As but due to ballet nutcracker practices that went as late as 11:30pm, then going to bed at 1am, waking up at 5am, ive had no sleep and it really hurt my grades. my childhood friend just confessed he loves me, when i see him as a brother, the guy i am so much in love with has a girlfriend, my cousin tried to commit suicide again, ive been getting bad grades on tests, im thinking about becoming anorexic because i feel so fat and stupid after getting shameful grades. im writing a novel, and i never get any time to write, and when i do, i get writers block and just sit in the corner of my room with the lights off. (and i know, i shouldnt complain, i know ppl have worse problems, im just being a brat and i should suck it up).

besides my "problems" ive just been getting images in my head of me cutting myself, or me cutting words into my arm. things that say "just lies" "im okay" and even just cutting in general. im really confused about this. ive always been a good kid, and i really dont know whats wrong with me....any advice? should i do it? should i not? please, i have no clue why im doing this to myself...
thank you

Why would you want to cut yourself its not fun it hurts just because you imagine those things does not mean you have to act on them i think talking to the school counselor would be a good idea and see what he/she thinks but it sounds like you have alot going for yourself and there is no need to cut i call it self control hope you get feeling better take care ;)



Do NOT do not do not, cut yourself! I've been cutting for three years and it's the stupidest addiction out there. In ten years, you won't be able to place the scars with the "monumental tragedies" that led to the cutting. Just remember you can change your life now, tell your parents you want to change some things up. Maybe not take so much dance so you can focus more on school.



You could probably use more sleep, for one. An adult needs more sleep than you are getting.

Is it a sin? Obviously you are not happy with what you are doing with your own body. Would God be happy with you for making yourself miserable and inflicting self-injury? Probably not.



Lower your aspirations, and that's also fine in life until you catch up. Sometimes, winning is not always the solution.

It is always nice to approach a specialist, do so.



cutting isnt the answer. confy in a mature friend. talk to someone u can trust. the bible does say that we shouldnt do harm on ourselves, so yeah i guess it is a sin. you can do this:)



i used to cut myself and all i can say is dont do that stupid crap. it doesnt help, it doesnt make you feel better in the end, and it doesnt do sh*t good for your life. Just don't even think about doing that. Just get a journal and start writing your thoughts and emotions out. It really does help and make sure it's put in a special place where no one can find it. :)



Cutting is a sin against your body for sure and one of the dumbest and most destructive things you can do. I know because I did it when I was young. Look at it this way.. if you didn't hear on the media and your school mates and so on about cutting.. this idea would never have entered your head. Kids just don't out of the blue say oh I am having a rough time.. what would feel better.. oh I know cutting. It is because it has been presented as an option. It really isn't. If you learn to deal with your emotions, and that means communicating with your parents as much as you think they are really stupid (all teens do by the way), then you will have a shot at a happy life. If you run away from feelings and stress by acting out against yourself, cutting, drugging, drinking, sleeping around, then you will regret it all your days.



you definitely need someone right now, there is this site called anxietyzone. com, i used it when i was down and the people on the forum are very helpful and friendly, people you may relate to. remember life goes on a B+, boys, stress, other problems go away. good luck, if you need anyone to talk to just email me clmisstaken@yahoo. com



HOLY ****!!!
NO you should not cut yourself and im sorry to say but you have it way better than i,i have tried to commit suicide like a million times because my life has been really screwed up and still is and i wont tell you my story because its super long and heres another question how old are you? You sound like you are too young to be thinking of that.also cutting yourself leaves hideous scars that will never go away.you need to find someone to talk to and express your feelings or write down your feelings in a journal.also ask your parents if you can change your ballet schedule and talk to them.you also need to find a distraction anything that can distract you this may sound immature but i watch tv to relax and run away from my problems for aleast an hour. once again you had a bad year that wasnt even that bad so you should not cut yourself. i send you lots of healing energy and a thousand hugs and i hope you take my advice....XOXO


P.S. i guess cutting is a sin but im an athiest so......yeah......

MYself



It happens to me all the time the though to cut myself but I convince myself that it isn't worth it so I decided to start venting out my problems and issues on online journals like livejournal.com. It's best to always share how you feel with people even if they are complete strangers because if you don't sooner or later all those bottled up emotions/feelings are going to explode.

This is my journal I write about random crap whenever I feel like it and if I don't want to show anybody what I wrote there's an option that's says private. Anyways good luck and DO NOT cut yourself because you might end up regretting it sometime in the future.
