I've cut myself before and it's not a good idea.. really I don't think it makes you feel any better, it makes you feel worse. Advice- DONT DO IT!

Peace, Love, & Best Wishes!

I used to cut myself but i stopped. The reason I stopped cuttin because instead i wrote poetry and still do I have been writing it for about a year. Poetry helps me ALOTTT!. I have written over 50 poems and one of them is actaully published in a book.

cuttin urself

people who cut themselves usually hide it - thats kinda part of it!!!
If they dont then its generally more of an attention thing than a serious depression thing (that dont mean they dont need sum real love n support mind!!!)
If ur mates cuttin themselves u just gotta show them that u care bout them n that they're loved!!! Support them - it'll b difficult but its important!!! They need u more than eva!!

i completly agree.
its fine being with your friends when everything is going well but is during the tough times that you find out who your real friends are.i can empathise with both you and your friend and all i can say is that she needs you now more than ever. don't give up on her. she'll never forget that you were the one who stuck by her in her time of need and i'm speaking from experience

I don't know how good my advice can be since I would NEVER cut myself. But I KNOW it's a bad, bad bad bad bad bad bad bad BAD idea. It's like suicide, just smaller; you're hurting yourself just because you're sad. I've heard of girls at my school who have cut themselves. I don't know why. Apparently, one of the girls at my school has "I need help" written in blood in her closet.

Never cut. No matter how disappointed you are. If you're sad, fix it.

i can see wher your coming from- i really can but being sad for some people isn't like a leaky tap or a broken clock that you can just go and "fix" its an intense experience where your both mentally and physically exhausted.
depression is the number 1 mental illnesss in the world. it effects 1 in 4 people in their life time. its a completly horrible feeling you feel like your trapped inside your own head.you start to think horrible thoughts about yourself or other people or both. you start to feel like nobody cares and that your a burden on the world and no matter how hard you try you can never escape from yourself.
this kind of depression doesn't go away overnight and you don't go to bed thinking tomorrow is a whole new day. half the time you dont want tomorrow to come because it'll just cause more pain than the day before.
personally i've never cut myself and i'm not saying i agree with it but i can see why people do it.its a way to escape themseves even if only for a minute ,its a way of releasing tension and anger, its a cry for help eheather conciously or sub-consiously.
you need to be there for your friend no matter what because she may be looking for someone to confide in and you have to be there for her when shes ready.

You know, that's a great poin, I agree with you, and I understand that I don't know what it feels like for some people, BUT I still think that no problem is bad enough to hurt yourself over. I say wrestle a pillow instead, cry if you need to, and call someone for help.

Wouldn't you agree?

i do agree completly with you and yeah if that works for you great but not all people can do that like i said i've never cut myself but i have done other things in the past that i'm not proud of but not everybody is like that for some people there just seems like no way out and it helps in some way................

cutting

i used to cut myself because i thought that no one cared about me.i thought it was a way of bringing the pain from the inside to the outside.i thouht it helped but it only made thins worse i only stopped two months ago but im glad i did. someone that i love more than anything in the world told a teacher. we went and talked about it with her and they both helped me through it. im glad she told because it could have got worse. Instead, now i talk to my girlfriend about it and write lyics and poems down.

i have also had a lot of friends cut too. i try to help them as much as possible and most of them have stopped.
Don't cut. It just makes things worse.

No i never new any1 who cut, i never cut either. I think its sad wen ppl cut themselvs. ppl who do that really do need help (no offence). They shouldnt be addicted to pain like that. how would it make them feel better, its really just hurting them not helping. I know y their doing it an stuff i just dont understand it all so im just gonna stop here!

cutting

CUTTING IS A WAY OF EXPRESSING FEELINGS, LIKE ART.

WHAT IS THE USE OF RUNNING AWAY FROM YOUR PAIN? YOU SHOULD LET IT OUT.

I CUT BUT I'M NOT OBSESSED WITH PAIN, IN FACT I HATE PAIN, THATS WHY I DO IT.

PEOPLE DON'T UNDERSTAND THAT LIVING WITH THE PAIN (THOUGHT/FEELING YOU HAVE) IS WORSE THAN LETTING IT OUT.

Please don't compare cutting to art.Art is like the expression of soul.Art is meant to bring happiness not pain.
There is no need of running away from pain, i agree, but sometimes it is better to keep your own pain to yourself.Why live with pain when u can forget it.Cutting yourself will just leave scars, scars which will always remind u of what should be forgotten.Besides cutting doesnot bring pain to 1 person only but there are a lot who get hurt n feel your pain.
So if your cutting yourself stop now b'coz it is not going to help u the way u think it is.
