Answers:
I think the biggest questions that you must ask yourself is A: Do you want to live!? B: Why are you doing the actions that you are doing, and what joy/ comfort/ or release does it bring you!? You next have to move forward and ask yourself what you really want! If you do not want to live !.!. then you won't and if you do "live" its not going to be a life worth living! You need to realize that you are "Important" and I am sure a very good / awesome/ and amazing guy!! Heck, I'd love to meet you ! You have soooo much potential !.!. all you have to do is tap in to it !!! I know you can! and I will also say that I understand the whole "cutting thing" for me it was a way to "punish myself" and yes, at one point in time I DID want to die!! However, I will promise you that it is possible to over come and like you therapy did not do jack for me!!! if you ever want to talk feel free to contact me at MKline07@aol!.com !!

Best wishes sweetie!!!

If you are going to regular therapy appointments, doing everything they tell you and it's not working then change therapists!. Tell them flat out it's not helping!. This is a serious problem that has to be dealt with seriously!. Make sure you are completely open & honest with them, if not then they can't help you!. If it is really serious they should consider hospitalizing you & putting you on meds until you are stabalized and then aggresive therapy!. You should also have someone you can talk to when these feelings come up!. In the meantime you may want to try to write down what you are feeling when you are having problems!. Pick up a pen and write what you think brought on these feelings, why you want to cut or kill yourself, what you think you gain from it, etc!. Suicide is a permanent solution to a temporary problem!. Good luck!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

You may need to find another therapist!. Also, finding a support group or group therapy might help you to feel like others have similar problems!. Try to focus on the feelings you have when you want to do this!. I used to scratch my scalp until it bled!. Then one day, a sweet little girl asked me, "What is in your hair!?" I was so embarrassed that I stopped that day!. When I want to do it, I make myself do something different to distract me!. I usually crack my knuckles instead or squeeze my hands together then get up and walk around!. It is hard to stop these things!. I realized that I wanted to be in control of the pain and stop it and start it when I wanted!. I can still have this control with cracking my fingers or squeezing!. Good luck to you!. Keep working on it!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Well, why do you cut!? Is it too feel something, does it relieve you of anything!? You'd have to mention any problems you have!. As for killing, you're too young, you need to enjoy life!. So many people out there would be happy to make it through some years of their life, and it isn't really fair when others are just throwing that away!. You havn't experienced the corner of life yet and you can't make that decision for yourself(suicide) at this point!. Find friends to talk to, try to outweight the positives and negatives in killing yourself!. Think of all the people that'll miss you!. You'll have to mention the reasons why you're trying/doing any of this in the first place before anyone can help you!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I know it's hard and you seem so far down that life is impossible!. But trust me!.!.!. once you make it through, you will look back and be glad you did it!. You will be so strong and so happy!. You should talk to your parents about switching therapists!.!. or looking at other types of treatment!. I hope you stop cutting!. I hope it works out for you!. If you ever need to talk!.!. msg me!Www@Answer-Health@Com

dude!.!. Like u and I r SO alike in many ways!. U think that everything is going to go wrong if u do it!. I recomend playing with playdough or listen to Secondhand Serenade!. It may b emo music but its so touching!.!. It feels like I can relate to the songs!. Listen to Vulnerable, Your Call, Like a Knife, and Its Not OverWww@Answer-Health@Com

I would say get a new therapist!. I have been dealing with self injury for almost 6 years, and I still am dealing with it, but I find talking to someone who knows what your going through, or a trusted adult, like your mom or an older sibling!.!. or family member helps alot!. Goodluck!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
